Cute SP, Alisha! No wonder your kids are so handsome, they've got a beautiful momma! Love the angle and b&w, and the snuggle with your camera shows that you are inseperable! Somebody said that they have a shutter going off in their mind's eye constantly. I'd say for most of us that's just about right! Have a great weekend!

If I looked like you Alisha I might try doing a self-portrait! I can imagine this was not easy at all you did a great job. Did you have a remote control?

You're funny Kate!!! Thanks for your comment:):) Yes I used a remote control on my Olympus C-60 zoom digital with my tripod. I was seriously sweating by going back & forth to review the shot on my LCD screen to make sure I was centered...hehe!! Definitely a work out!:):) Alisha
