RetiredSeabee Photos

Post by RetiredSeabee » Fri Apr 08, 2016 5:01 pm

From time to time I get it right and manage to capture a moment just about right.
I will add to this as I dig photos out of files.

This first one is pretty special to me. These two ladies hold my heart in their hands. My bride and our youngest granddaughter.
I took this in 2007 with a Sony DSC-S85. It still takes great pictures, I don't use it much anymore but probably should.
Miranda was just a few months past her second birthday. She and Grandma have a special bond, they understand each other as if they were old friends.

I call this one Facing Future.

I love it when a picture tells a story.

The pink elephant is Georgie, we brought him to the hospital the day she was born. She latched on to him when she was about three months old. He went everywhere with her till she started second grade. Then she let her mommy keep him until after school. She is eleven now and most of the time Georgie isn't far away.

Facing the Day Together

Post by RetiredSeabee » Thu Apr 14, 2016 5:52 pm

This is my favorite model when she was three years old. She was accustomed to me pointing a camera at her and would settle into a pose naturally.
I had set Georgie up to get a shot of him gazing out to sea. Georgie gets into a lot of things and is photographed pretty often.
Miranda just walked over and joined him to see what he was looking at.
The two of them became one heart and soul the day she was born. They have gotten each other through some stormy days and have shared the brightest days.

Seabee,

For me, this neat picture sure helps this "more-elderly guy" to once again see through the eyes of a child.
Enjoyable!
Thanks much for posting it.


P.S. Years ago my wife got my childhood friend from my Mom. He is a rabbit, and is described in The Velveteen Rabbit book. Indeed, he was velvety-soft and fluffy back then. But living with me all through childhood, he sure grew threadbare, and is kind of "falling apart" nowadays! The interesting thing (maybe a little embarrassing, too) is that my wife has him displayed in her wooden shelf collection of "favorite things." She has him sitting right next to that book, and 'tis astonishing that he is still around! :)
