New Jersey

I just started working on a large batch of images from a very enjoyable visit to New Jersey. Right now I’m working on June 21st. There are some pretty images in here that I can’t wait to really spice up in post processing.

First images may start showing up as early as tomorrow.

I’ve put up a couple of “new” pictures of the kids from early summer over the past day or so. They can be located in each of their respective galleries.

Big Al!

Hey Big Al! Happy Birthday! We miss you up here. Let us know when you’re coming back up for a visit.

Great Blue Heron vs. Bull Frog (doesn’t end well for the Frog)

I’m in the process of uploading a few images from an extensive series of a Great Blue Heron hunting, capturing, and eventually consuming a bull frog. Not everyone’s taste, to be sure, but an interesting series none the less. If you’ve ever seen how truly large a Great Blue Heron is, you can use that to scale and figure out how big this bull frog was. He was a big one. The images are in the Wildlife Gallery.

Skooter-Twoter updates

Yeah, he’s a handsome little man, and one very fast crawler now too. It’s getting pretty tough to keep an eye on him these days, but if you want to find him, I suggest you find his big sister. He’s usually right there by her side, loving every second spent with her. He’s standing easily now, and definitely threatening to walk very, very soon as well. There are 4 new pictures of him posted here. Enjoy.

One of the Wheel Horse Trio Turns 4

I posted a dozen images from Aaron’s 4th Birthday today… I know I have a lot more images but I’ve been unsuccessful in locating them so far. Workflow, workflow, workflow… this ship needs to be tightened up a bit. I’ll post the others when I find them. Until then, here’s the small sample that I can offer… (link)

Happy Birthday, Aaron!

Gallery completed

I’ve finished uploading the images from Auntie Michele to the Peanut’s TWO! gallery. Thanks again, Michele!

Changes for Wednesday, October 15

The first mission for today (about 50% completed) is to get the balance of the pictures that Auntie Michele took for us at Peanut’s second birthday party up. That is underway now, and the results are in the gallery. I expect they all should be uploaded in an hour or so.

Secondly, I’m trying to make changes to the home page on halfpintprints.com, and the primary change (and ergo culprit) is the new, groovy, flash-based slide show. I certainly need to do some rearranging and housekeeping, so please pardon the appearance as I renovate. Should be nice when completed, though. I hope.

Last, and not only not least, but perhaps most importantly, I wish a very Happy Birthday to Maeyee today as well. It was great to get to see you and hubby this weekend. I look forward to doing that with more and more frequency in the future.

techie mumbo-jumbo

I’m trying to accomplish something. When it eventually works, it will be right here. For now, it’s not.

Monday, Monday

It’s a slow-moving Monday after a wonderful weekend with Family and Friends. Jody and I enjoyed a rare and wonderful date to attend Marla and Josh’s Wedding. We had a fantastic time and even got to share a dance. Good friends are a wonderful thing.

We came home to two sleeping children. That’s a good day. Pictures will follow as soon as I can, but there’s a lot to go through.

Just before sunset

I didn’t have any errands to run tonight after work, so I had the great pleasure of getting home with a little daylight still left. Emmie and I took the dogs out into the field and took full advantage of the opportunity. I used the 100mm Macro lens and a flash for most of the images, a couple of which I will be posting soon. It was a very nice ending to this week, and I think we both enjoyed ourselves greatly.
