    Went for a walk through Sunken Gardens today with Evan and Samantha while the older ladies went shopping. At the empty amphitheater, Samantha leapt up onto the stage and burst into song like only an uninhibited 3 year old can!:Love:

    but, i didn't want to make you think i was implying any similarity in their appearance

    but, that first one, is awesome, mitch

    Thanks, Terri. I almost left my camera at home for this outing.:eek:  I don't always bring it when I have to chase two of them. I was certainly glad I had it when she jumped up on that stage.

    I wish I had that kind of self-confidence! She's such a go-getter...it's fun watching her via your photos.

    Great captures, Mitchell. I spent summers with my grandparents in Clearwater, back in the pre-Disney 60's and Sunken Gardens was one of the "biggie" attractions of that era. Great place to shoot...then and now!

    Mitch,

    Both shots are excellent---and the first is special. I'm glad you brought your camera to Sunken Gardens!

    #1 is just phenomenal. I think it would be great as a large print/canvas!

    And although it's a while away you just KNOW it will make an appearance at any type of slide show at Samantha's wedding!!!

    I have a special file for these types of shots. When my kids turn 13 they have a Bar Mitzvah to celebrate entry into Jewish adulthood. It has become a tradition to show a brief slideshow of photos at the party. Photos like this one get labled Bar Mitzvah Worthy (BMW) and get put in that special file.

    I just made the slideshow for my eldest daughter. Hard to know whether to laugh or cry at many of these photos!
