it's all about me....mostly

we started our weekend
at the cottage
where the last of the fall colors
have almost disappeared
and on our way home

a stop at the apple orchard
for apple cider donuts
and
a photo shoot
in the pumpkin patch

last stop
of the day
was at
my favorite old
slightly abandoned
stone house

where I handed over
my camera
to my hubby

and
then to
my daughter

where they "caught" me
having
a great time
on such a beautiful
fall day

and
once we got home
I
edited
these pictures
so that I could
soften
my
smile wrinkles
and darken
the shadows
around me
or otherwise
I'd never share this many pictures
of me
at one time
and
while my family did
great
with the
camera
I've taken it back
as
I love
"being the photographer"
and
being
on
"that"
side
of the
camera
more
than anything else
right now

  6. You goose, you're so cute, no touch-ups necessary!!! Autumn really does do that to a person on the inside, doesn't it? Lights ya up ... you do great on both sides of the camera, Beth, and I always love seeing pics of you. [I'm jealous that you get to wear long sleeves and a scarf, though -- I admit it.]

  7. Dear Beth, thank you for the lovely comment you left on my blog, I really appreciate it. I also want to say that I LOVE this post. You look so vibrant and full of love. The one of you and your husband is just gorgeous. I am sure you know how lucky you are, I just had to sit there and stare at the pure happiness and liveliness of you, it really did me good to see someone enjoying life so very much. Take care sweetheart and keep on enjoying what you have, it is just so important. Love Jen xxxx
