Here’s some more reading time. You have probably figured out that we are quite a bit into reading. Not so much as you may think from my blog posts, but definitely more than into computer games or psp or other things like TV. Or at least we try to be… The “Five Little Monkeys” series is really nice.

Shot at an outrageously high ISO. Not even worth measuring. The image turned out fine, though. I increased the exposure and reduced the saturation in Lr. As my friend Ugur would say it: I “un-RGB’d” the image, where RGBing an image means tweaking with the saturation of individual primary colors, red, green, blue.

This morning, while my son was in school, in the dinning area, I decided to take my little princess for a walk. Just like that. We went outside and walked to this park where she started to climb, and play and slide, and go up the slide and all kinds of childish things. I took the camera with me to snap a few shots just for myself thinking that for the project I will come up with something else. I ended up choosing one of the shots I took in the morning. Why? I love it. And I just know that I’ll be crying in a few short years looking at this picture. My kids are such a blessing. Right now, I think life without kids is just empty. And as the good book says, “for everything there is a season”. Thanks to a little reminder from a good friend, I remember very often that for everything there is a season. There is a time to laugh and there is a time to cry, there is a time to be born and a time to die, there is a time to play and there is a time to go on a walk. The walking part is not in the book but I think there is a time for that too. Don’t you think?

And here is the birthday girl with her Daddy and her flowers.
