Several old photos of my younger brother and me. And one with my parents at the beach in Atlantic City.

I'm back! A few days away from the computer and I'm feeling recharged!
Sylvia and her girls arrived Thursday night. I shut the computer off when they got here and am just booting up for the first time now.
Nice to actually spend some face to face time instead of some screen to screen time.
Picked up this shot Friday night when we all ventured to the fair; it wasn't as enjoyable as it has been in the past, but we still managed to have a good time.
The girls certainly weren't complaining!
Hope everyone has had a good weekend and is having a good Monday.

Lately I've been feeling rather poignant in regards to my children growing up. It's their job, and my job is to help them do it well, but... oh, the fleeting nature of that time. It makes me ache.

A visit to this old man's school....many memories of those early childhood days and boyhood friends flood his mind.

After all this "growing up" I can honestly say I love swings... I can still recall the first time I learnt to swing by myself and that awesome butterfly feeling in my stomach. I think I've outgrown this particular swing though :p
It's funny the memories that stay with you through time and it's sad when I think of all the days in my life where I actually can't remember what I did or what my thoughts were.
I haven't been able to use my new cam as I bought it body only and wasn't able to collect a lens from my cousin in the end this weekend. Anyhoo, I already ordered the ones I wanted so hopefully they will be here sooon! I'm so poor it's ridiculous. Meh. Still.. can't wait to finally play with it! Tehehe :D
In the meanwhile.. there is nothing wrong with a good ol' point and shoot!
People change with time. There are things that happened to a person in his childhood and years later they seem to him alien and strange. I am trying to decipher that child. Sometimes he is a stranger to me. When you think about when you were 14, don't you feel a certain alienation?
One of our daughters' prized possessions. Shot with a lighting technique I just learned about, i.e. a softbox that was heavily feathered. It produced the background gradations from darker to lighter which helps to add some separation between the subject and background without the need for elaborate post work.
Taken for the Macro Mondays challenge, "Childhood Toys", on 10 June 2019. Hands up if you've still got your old Meccano set tucked away in a cupboard.

How advanced they are, these children of the future,
Like small adults, within their tiny frames,
They grow up in a fast 'speed driven' culture,
Where 'learning pressures' change their kind of games,
Where is their childhood, in all this hurly burly,
Where is their pure untainted view of things,
Why do they have to grow so old, so early,
And lose the joy that only childhood brings.
"Get ready for take off Teddy! We're flying to the moon!" :-)
A young Luna (my female astronaut minifig) dreams of flying into space in her cardboard spaceship :-)
This photo is based on the Lego GWP "Cardboard Adventures" (40533). I changed the minifig to a young girl so it could represent Luna as a child :-)
I wanted to create something magical.
I took this about a month and a half ago, and finally had the time to finish it! I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I was way overdue for an addition to my Childhood series. But, I should be posting more now that I have some free time. :)
Also, I just made a Tumblr, so please follow me if you have one!

“What was wonderful about childhood is that anything in it was a wonder. It was not merely a world full of miracles; it was a miraculous world.” - G.K. Chesterton
We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it.

Sometimes I miss my childhood life.

Children imagination makes fantasy look real!
My entire childhood was a living movie, that i was the main caracter, the vilain and the director...and boy, i was happy! And I still am...maybe because there's some piece of my childhood inside me that hopefully will never fade!
