Journalling reads: There aren’t many people, who would understand why these photographs are precious. They were taken on a really old mobile phone, and they are of me holding my little brother Daniel. These are the only photos I have of just the two of us together. I have a few others, first christmas ones I took and some of me with him and my sisters. I don’t have any other photos because I don’t see him or any of my family anymore. He’s a big boy now, he even goes to school, but I remember him when these photos were taken. I remember how we all thought he looked so much like Aidan. I remember how he wasn’t really very sure about me because he didn’t really know me. I remember this was the first and last time, he trusted me enough to let me hold him without screaming. This was also the only time that I didn’t bribe him to try and get him to let me hold him. But more than anything else, I remember that I almost deleted these photos right after I had taken them, because I thought that they were rubbish. Something stopped me and I am so glad it did. Sometimes you only get one shot to record a memory, and you have to be greatful for what you end up with. It doesn’t matter if the photos end up blurry or out of focus, it doesn’t matter if the colours are wrong or they are filled with noise, the quality of the photo has nothing to do with the quality of the memory that you are capturing. Sometimes it’s worth keeping that in mind. 16th September 2006
being Farmer Browns. Brendan has to leave town for the day, so we're working the fields alone. So we found the hats he wears in the garage and decided to take photos after our morning transplant at 6:30. Only to find, when we walk back into the house, Brendan standing in the kitchen on his way out of town!! He was confused as to what we were doing.
The last time over the barriers at last weekend's BC Cup Cyclocross race. I finished a respectable 2nd in the Men's B group. I'm sitting 4th overall in the BC Cup standings going into the last event, the Provincial Championships on Oct 30th at Jericho.

brendadada took this amazing set of cross-processed pics of me when I was in Newcastle, and they've sent me into an orgy of vanity - wow! photos where I look good!
So here's a selection of pics of me I like, taken by flickrrs. I haven't included *all* my favourites - couldn't fit them on - but these are all lovely - thank you all so, so much! I used to hate having my photo taken....

Ms. Gooner and Double With Cream tagged me for this "Under 10" thing going around Flickr. I don't usually get into these things, but I've not intentionally put off my response. Three moves in a year has submerged all my photos into some box that has not yet surfaced in our new rental. I ran across this one while I was digging through my old office stuff this morning and just about yipped for joy!
I was 11 months old in this photo. I think I was more fun then than I am now. I suspect by the time I am eighty, I will have recovered. ;-)
I'm not tagging anybody, simply because I rarely do stuff like that and I just tagged some people on my blog yesterday for another one of these... *wry grin*
So just do it if you want to - and if you have a photo handy!
