Look and You Can See

When the day began I had no idea what picture I'd take. We were going to the library, something we do fairly often, so I thought a pile of books might be a fitting and fun reminder. I took a picture of my pile as we checked out.
One of the fun parts of having college students live with us is that I get to hear a little about what they're learning. In the case of Laura, who is an art major, I get to see her art projects, both the finished products and the works in progress. Today she used our daughters as subjects for photographic portraits for a class assignment. I didn't realize what was going on at first... heard their voices and giggles in the background, but as soon as I figured out what was going on I grabbed that nearby camera and headed to the room they were in to get a picture of the photographer taking pictures!
I didn't use flash and have only a point and shoot, and I think they're a bit fuzzy. But I want to remember the experience.

I bet your girls had fun with this! I like how intense everyone looks, but yet you know they are smiling inside.

What is Blink? My guess is a photography book, but I'm thinking that title was on a wish list my dd had...something to do with how we think.

Photographer photographing another photographer. Very cool! Was that wall yellow at the retreat? I like the color.

Library Days are fun and books make great photos!

Stephanie has such beautiful posture. I've noticed it in other pictures and in person. Love those photography pictures.
