I finally set up the tripod and remote while the boys were at school to take some pictures of Sunflower and I. Technically Sunflower was holding the remote most of the time, so she took these pictures. And she took a lot of them! She took them as fast as the camera would allow. Since my motivation for these photos was because I have very few pictures of myself with my mother (who died when I was 15) and I didn't want Sunflower to say the same, mission was definitely accomplished!
I am linking these to Deb Duty Photography's This or That Thursday.
Then I thought I would participate this week in Sky Watch Friday. I love all the glorious skies other's capture though I still struggle to duplicate the true beauty of what I see. This is almost what it looked like out on the Bay last weekend.
Then Favorite Photo Friday. Too difficult to choose and I've already shared a few photos of this rainbow, but in this one, if you look closely, you can see the start of a double rainbow up top. It really was stunning!
Lastly, this is my first time participating in Still Life Stand-Outs. I saw the amazing shots from last time, so I feel a little shy. But I got to play with my friend's new macro lens, and the narrow focus is oh so fun!
That is it for today. Be sure to check out some of those links to see some lovely eye candy. There are some really talented artists out there!

Enjoying your shots...all of them...
Love your sky shot. And I really like the rainbow shot. But seeing you with Sunflower is lovely, lovely, lovely. She has your beauty and your smile. The third shot you posted is beautiful.
I love ALL of your photos!!!!
Beautiful photos, especially I like those with you and sweet Sunflower and the photo with rainbow.
Regards and best wishes
The ones of you and your daughter are precious. I love the one where she's blurry! They move fast, don't they? =>
Wow - all these shots are fabulous! Love the rainbow and cross - and that black and white photo of you and Sunflower - both are magical!
Beautiful photographs
Loved all of them
Enjoyed looking through all your shots - particularly like the b&w of you and your little one. And your beautiful entry for the still life standout. Lovely work.
wow, looks like you're a serial blog themer
nice skywatch image - big sky
The photos of you and your daughter are wonderful! You look especially pretty in the 3rd one and I love the black and white one too! Thanks for linking up!
I like your sky photos but I love the photos of you and your daughter.
oh my...I love these. You should frame them and hang them on your walls. :) I don't even know which one I like the best...I love that middle one...but then I really like the one where she is blurred, but you can see the remote in her hand. too cute. And the one where she is playing...oh, I don't know. They are all great.
Good job getting in the shot! I'm guilty about staying out, too. Love the one where she is close to the camera...clicking away. But they are all adorable and she will treasure them. The rainbow shot, tho, really caught my eye. Love it with the cross. We had showers and sun yesterday and I was getting whiplash looking for one as I drove down the road (with, thankfully, no wreck!!). Never saw one. So thanks for including yours :)
I love that you got yourself in some shots. I certainly don't get in enough of them. I have a tripod and a timer but my camera is a model that you can't use a remote with :(
I love the black and white of you two! ...and I'm diggin' the texture on the last photo!
No need for makeup, you look so beautiful in that shot, the look on your face says so much.

These photos make me smile - I really love that first one...and then the last...and everything in between.
Love the cross picture. SOOOOO peaceful and simplistic. Always love visiting your site. What a beautiful little girl!
