What a difference a year makes! Him by shesnapped

What a difference a year makes! Him

An unexpected trip down memory lane yesterday on the drive home from taking Mommy and the babies back to their house. Had 8 hours passenger-time to clean up the portable hard drive in preparation for transferring files to a new non-portable hard drive for a second backup after a major scare a few days ago when I thought my portable had died. Obviously got a little side-tracked!

SO many beautiful shots that I had no clue how to process! These 2 shots were taken Labor Day weekend last year at Childress Vineyards. It just amazes me how much they've grown and changed, and yet their personalities are still their personalities! And as I've looked back over their last 19 months of life, I can see that their personalities were apparent even from Day One. I'm struck breathless again by the passage of time and all that has gone on, in their lives and household as well as in the lives and household where I spend my everyday.

And tomorrow I send the teenager back to college for his Sophomore year.

Excuse me while I go have a good cry.

@frankhymus I've put a lot of what you've taught me in these two photos. I say "a lot" rather than "all" because I'm sure I've left some things out!

Your comments will be appreciated as always!!

Nice too, but I think the other is much more professionally shot and processed. Here, the white to dark transition out to the right is not handled very well, "posertization" on the boundary area is not very attractive. Perhaps a simple swipe with the spot healing brush could even it out?

Love the serious look :)

@frankhymus The other is my favorite also. This one was not as sharp as the other one to begin with. Tell me more about what you're suggesting....
