Heeeeeelllllloooooooo 2015!
While at the Georgia Aquarium, standing in the "strollers only" section to adjust my camera equipment before going in search of Jelly Fish (something I have been dying to catch "well" without success all year), I looked up and low and behold was this little angel wondering what this lady sans stroller, but with backpack, and what looked like a billy club (my thoughts, not hers) was doing.
As I adjusted my stuff, we played a lot of peekabo. Up, down, up, down, and so on (the glass here is a "wall" between Stroller Land and the dining tables where she was with her family--she was on the bench). I asked the parents if they would mind if I took their daughter's photo, and it was my "test shot" before running off to find the Jellies in a swarm, no a sea, of folks visiting the Aquarium that day. I also took another shot I'll probably post here in the other album--her eyes go to the side in play.

And then, in a flash, an Aquarium employee came over and said, "Ma'am, you're going to have to leave this area; it's for strollers only." I swear, if I name a band, it's going to be "Strollers Only." So I waved good-bye to the sweet girl and her family on my quest for Jellies. See here what I got:

OH, and Happy New Year and Welcome 365 Newbies! Pressure is off of me as my 2nd year project ends January 21! And then I'll take time off again, but if you are new and you happen upon this page, take a look at my discussion (10 reasons to join 365:
http://365project.org/discuss/general/24372/10-days-left-for-some-and-10-reasons-to-start-365 ) And have fun. Take the good with the bad and the downright ugly. Ask questions. Let your jaw drop when you see something good. And don't let anyone intimidate you (but no one would--swear, this place is so darned nice, it gets almost creepy!). Ready. Set. Go. (At least for you! I have to finish Year 2). Now, really, GO!
Half a Hot Dog!
