Seattle scenes*
Ben pointing to his fave animal, the orca, Seattle, WA, Canon Digital Rebel XSi
Just got back from Seattle where I got to see family, one of my favorite people in the world, and met up with a new friend to see the Luminaria around Green Lake. The only thing I missed that I have to do next time for sure is eat at Delancey's. (I have been reading Homemade Life and loved the idea of going to her wonderful restaurant.)
The highlight for Ben was meeting Bella, Kelly Rae's dog. Ben played "Baby Bella" which involved stripping down naked, following her around and imitating her every move. We were almost hyperventilating with laughter when we looked under the dinner table and saw that Ben's "paws" matched Bella's perfectly. Seriously Ben, could you be any cuter?

This is a shot of Green Lake on the night of the luminaria. So happy Tara Weaver told us about it... it was magic to walk around the lake. (Fits in beautifully with her incredible project called Stalking Wonder)

author claims that this ebook can teach you to earn money with google adwords. What do you think is it real or no. Anyone bought it? I don't want to loose money again. BTW sorry for offtopic!
here is website I neeed your opinion
Oh! It was a long exposure of about a minute or so...
I rested the camera on a wooden post so that the camera
wouldn't move, set the dial on "TV" and adjusted the time.
It was really fun to experiment with that!

Posted by: ab at December 17, 2009 07:53 AMI loved A Homemade Life and hope to eat at Delancey one day. And what a great photo of Ben and Bella!
Posted by: Katie @ cakes, tea and dreams at December 17, 2009 07:41 AMI left my heart in Seattle...We lived on Green Lake when my boy was 3. Lots of walks around the lake and playing in the park. Sweetness squared, please tell me you took a ferry ride!
Posted by: Puanani at December 17, 2009 07:36 AMLove the pictures...Am curious like other people how you did the night shot?
Posted by: christine at December 17, 2009 12:45 AMYay! I love when people come to "my" city and find it beautiful. Hope you'll find an excuse to visit again soon.
Posted by: Martini Mom at December 16, 2009 09:51 PMWow I love how things like books can connect people over the net. I have A Homemade Life and met Molly at a book signing at a local bookstore. She's the real deal and from Oklahoma which makes it all the more better since that's where I live. She read the 1st chapter of her book and I was in tears it was so beautiful. Anyway I just had to share that with you! And BTW the doggie photo of Ben is PRECIOUS!
Posted by: amber at December 16, 2009 07:35 PMI recently played with some long exposures in D.C. A great alternative to what I normally do!
Love the way both you and Kelly made your photos come out, but in their own ways.
