My first attempt at using actual filters on my camera. Need some more practice with my ND filter but not too bad.
What rad mom stops for a yummy taco snack after Saturday morning basketball practice?
...THIS one does. :)
Just like his Daddah, Bryan loves him some Huatulco Beach tacos from, and I quote, "The bestest tatohs pwace ebber!"
Usually Syx takes lil' Bryan to basketball on Saturdays. But Daddah is away on a longggg business trip, so I get to trade in a couple of my quiet, lazy Saturday mornings for an hour's long drive to town, an hour's long sit on hard bleachers inside a noisy gym full of two and three year olds running amok with orange balls flying everywhere, and an hour's ride back home by 11 a.m. - the hour I would usually be rolling out of bed and into my morning salutations yoga routine.
And you know what?
I
LOVE
EVERY
STINKIN'
MINUTE
of standing in for Syx. There's something magical about the dialogue between Mommies and two year olds sitting behind them in their car seat. Millions of questions...songs we sing...that sweet quiet that occasionally fills the car and you look back at your child in the rearview mirror as they stare out the window with big, inquisitive eyes. You wonder what they're thinking about...
That is for about thirty peaceful seconds before they blurt out exactly what they're thinking...usually something like "why is dat gwass bwown not geen?" or "I gotta' POTTYYYYYYY!!!"
Remind me to thank Syx for all he does for us.

About the Ebook
As a self challenge for December 2021 a photo was taken every day up to Christmas Day (sometimes multiple photos a day) featuring 1/6 scale dioramas, Elf on the Shelf and Santa to celebrate the upcoming holiday. For any collector of smaller scaled items this is a must for any fan of Christmas in general.
Peter the Puffin and a curious Fox Kit in Newfoundland, Canada. Never leave anything laying around with curious wildlife (especially babies!) in the area.
This was the practice shot for the Colas Class 70 on the Aberdeen – Irvine due through the station a few minutes later and uploaded previously to Flickr. Fortunately this unit didn't hang around to block the view. Paisley Gilmour Street, 21st September 2022.
Portrait Practice. Looking through some old photographs of when my kids were little and I thought this one of my son from about 11 years ago would make a fun painting. 5x7 oil on panel.

This is how I found Charlie when I came home today... practicing to become… a clown?! :)
This young Grey Butcherbird was practicing his 'beat prey to death' technique on bits of the flaky bark from this paperbark tree - quite a good moth substitute. At Star Swamp a couple of months ago.

Adjacent to the mural mile floodwall during the annual Paint Louis sanctioned graffiti event, this individual appears to be practicing or testing some paint on this building. Thanks for looking.
