Kimmie's Joy

This one of my all-time favorites, (from the "archives") and I'm using it to celebrate: the halfway point of my "365." Kimmie is my cousin who is age 6 in this photo. She is in her early 40's now, mother of 5, and has retained every bit of the joy and love of life that I see in this photograph.
Halfway through my "365"?? How did THAT happen! :-D Well, it happened because of all of you 365'rs. Your meaningful support, appreciative comments, encouragement, humor, and many kindnesses, have helped me to keep going, and to keep reaching. You have also been my teachers, and I have learned more than I can easily express ( and not just about photography; :-D) And it is my supreme pleasure to view YOUR work, and the way YOU view the world. From my heart, my grateful thanks, Les x
