Hands...

Last week's i heart faces theme was hands.  I didn't get myself together in time to submit a post, but now in hindsight think I have a couple that would've been perfect.  So I'm going to post them here.

Vacation Photos...

Just returned from a long overdo vacation.  Not only was it great fun and relaxing, but it was a chance for me to practice many of the photography techniques I read about and wanted to try or have been working on.  I took probably close to 1,000 photos, uploaded 200 to my flickr page, and have about 30-40 I want to share.  So I'll do this in phases and in no particular order.
