WW: The Leftovers (the non-food kind)

Do you ever go through your leftover photos and wonder what you will do with them? I know they won't win any awards, but they each tell a unique, personal story. It's so hard to part with them. Ok, so I admit it. Deleting pics isn't my strong suit. (Hubs just bought me a new 2 TB hard drive.) I may even have a small photo hoarding problem. And ironically enough I just ran across this article about deleting pics ruthlessly.

Maybe one day, but for now I'm am giving them a day to shine.

My son actually took this pic of me and I repurposed it as my new button.


This is one of my kid's favorite pastimes these days.


I love the simpleness of this one.


This one was an experiment in the dark with hardly any natural light. A little tricky without flash, and definitely needs more work and probably a tripod. But isn't it sweet?


Taken after one of our family runs.


A common photo op around here. This toad was captured by Pokey.


A gift from my Little Man. Such a thoughtful gesture.


This was the same day as the trek through the creek I shared a few weeks ago.


Taken for a photography challenge. Hubs hated it.


Another shot by Little Man.


Love the sky in this one. I added a couple different textures to give it a little more interest.


Rejected for my flower photo shoot. I kinda like the canvas effect it has going for it.


The one hour the kids were with hubs for father's day between a soccer tourney and hub's night shift.


Another photography challenge reject. But I kinda love it.


This was meant to be a silhouette shot, but the settings weren't right. I just love the natural expressions though. If it weren't for the scary ape shirt from Uncle Hans it might be more tolerable.


A recent find thanks to mama cardinal dropping it on our deck. After some fb discussion, we are pretty positive it's a tomato worm.


This one reminds me of a setting in the Lion King. Not sure why since it looks nothing like Africa.


How can you delete peonies?




And this is a sneak peek of a photo shoot I did in North Carolina of my brother and beautiful sister in law. Happy Birthday, Nate! You can see more of the collection at alicia ann photography.

Ok. That's all I've got today.
