Picture Overload

I decided to take my fancy-schmancy camera and attempt to do a "professional" photo shoot with Henry. I scouted out a spot in our neighborhood that I thought would make a good background for some pictures. There's a seedy little park down the street that's probably seen it's share of drug deals, but it has a crumbly old brick wall that someone has painted like an American flag on one side and a pretty shade of blue on the other. There's also a dilapidated fence that I thought would look like a cool country setting. I had visions of Henry leaning against the blue wall with his beautiful blue eyes sparkling...unfortunately it was too sunny and there were weird shadows and he wouldn't even look up at me. Even though I bribed him with Dairy Queen ice cream. I did get a few cool shots there, though, and even more good ones later at home in our back yard (after the ice cream).


No smiles pre-ice cream!

In "The Country"...

Possibly my favorite one...

The blue wall was too cool. We'll have to try it again some other time...

The flag-side of the wall had much better lighting...

Back home after a trip to DQ, there were lots of smiles!

Cute close-ups...

Playing with the shadows and light...

Typical Henry expressions...

Pretty blue eyes...

Kickin' dirt & havin' fun...
