The book - insert favourite expletive here - is almost finished, but in the meanwhile I don't have anything new to post. This one, which I processed ages ago, was taken in February 2005 during a trip to my sister's and includes our four children (Libby was pregnant with Finley at the time) and my sister's three children.

And I should probably write more, but I've written over 30,000 words in the last few weeks and have now got to the stage where I'd rather saw my own leg off with a rusty carving knife than write anything else ;-)

Tomorrow, on the other hand, will be a different kettle of fish :-)

(and this one looks much better with the black theme).

Joseph: "hectic" is almost unavoidable with our family :-)

It's very different to anything I've seen on your blog before. As soon as I saw it I went 'ooooh' so that must be a good sign. Love how much action is crammed into one scene.

Buy, borrow or just read in WHS (if yr too tight!) this months Digital Photo Pro - out tomorrow. DJN has the front cover plus 8 (yes 8) page double spread in it - nice to see your work in print :-) Wonderful shot btw.

Ooops that should be 8 pages - sounds more like 16 the way I've worded it - not properly awake yet!

Love this. It is candid, beautifully processed and could be put into an archive about family life for use in a hundred years. Just such a lovely scene.

That is such an interesting shot. The angle and the fisheye look is great. Very nice!
