Here are a few from around here, i just love the one of the little girl. she's a friend's daughter, 5 years old and very spunky!

awesome new sasha pic!

This girl is the best model EVER...imagine that, a toddler that actually earns her keep! I just love how crisp everything came out here, and the background was so dark it just vanished with a minor adjustment. Those green eyes are so amazing.

Spirit of Hot Springs Part 6---The Office, the Garage, and the Backyard







the gals (and me)

Here's one for Grandma who complained of not seeing any new ones of Sasha for a while. The one of both girls is not the best but it was from an indoor flash shot so I did what I could with it.....cute smiles though. And i threw in one of me at the end.....yeah, yeah like anyone cares :P

Spirit of Hot Springs Part 3--- The Old Post Office, Camas





Spirit of Hot Springs Part 2--- Old Doors of Hot Springs





Spirit of Hot Springs Part 1--Always there

For my Digital Photography course at AAU, I am supposed to take one image that captures "A day in the life" of Hot Springs. This is gonna be tricky, this place has SO much character----and so many characters! Here are the first 4 that I've liked from my trip to town yesterday.....more on the way soon. The theme here is "Things that are always there."







3 new black/whites

Abby's dog Dyssa, our road (see how the dead trees have been stripped by the horses and donkeys?) and a circle of barbed wired in the grass.

storytime...and a preview of things to come

another family pic.....this one is so sweet, you can really see the resemblance between meko and sasha.



I promise, i'm going to get out of the house and shoot some new stuff---SOON! I have an assignment for a class to photograph a "day in the life" of Hot Springs. I can only submit one for critique/grading but I will post all my favorite attempts here....maybe you can help me pick the best one! You can leave comments on any of these posts, btw...

3 generations of Allisons

I haven't been getting out to shoot much, but I did get a few nice portraits the other night when Meko's dad came over. Here's grandpa, dad, and zoe....three generations.
