Every evening my little neighbor, Gabby flies by my house on her bike, sometimes using my driveway as her turnaround point. When she was little she would run in the opposite direction when she saw me with my camera, but now she tolerates my snaps.
This week over at Kim Klassen's Beyond Layer's class she is encouraging us to hunt down and take pictures of cups....well, that is absolutely no problem for me...I love cups in all sizes, shapes, colors. By the time this week is over, you will probably see every cup I own....well, probably not, since there are only 5 days to this challenge and I definitely have more than 5. So to start the week, here is my cheery, cherry mug....I am also joining Rosie at Leaves in Bloom for her Color Me Weekly.
I even get her to pose occasionally....
And Toby posed too, isn't he handsome with his new summer cut!!

Have a great week ahead. And have a cup on me!!

What sweet pictures of Gabby & Toby! They just made me smile... Of course your cup is cute too... can't wait to see more. One of these days I'll try one of Kim's classes...she does wonders with photography.

You have a sweet little neighbor - and you captured a great shot of her. Your cup and colour palette are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGood morning to you to Deanna, and the cup challenge won't be a problem for me either - we share the same obsession! lol
ReplyDeleteAnd don't feel bad, you have company when it comes to the heat, although with our humidity the 'real feel' temps are supposed to be 106-107! I may have to be beach bound this week since at least there will be a nice breeze to fool me... ; )
ooo I love the mug. I want one lol, I'd drink my coffee out of it everyday. Love Tobys cut he is a cutie. Have a great week!
ReplyDeletePerfection! What a sweet little Gabby!
ReplyDeleteWonderful captures & may I say that your header photos are so very beautiful! =)
ReplyDeleteIt's not fair is it! We have copious amounts of rain and little sun and you the opposite! Come on mother nature, share it out evenly! x
ReplyDeleteoh my Deanna...your little friend gabby looks adorable and belongs in a Norman Rockwell postcard painting. Beautiful capture...and toby....give him a a scrub behind the ears for me!
ReplyDeleteGreat portrait of the little girl Deanna. love your cup also and of course the handsome Toby
ReplyDeleteMy goodness- she is a STUNNING little girl.
ReplyDeleteSo glad we got to see Gabby and Toby.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots of the neighborhood girl. I so wish I could do portraiture. Toby's summer cut is very flattering. Such a handsome boy. I have a ton of mugs and never really thought of using them much in photography. You gave us a great example here. I really like the color wheel. Hope you have a great week! I'm just coming off a 12 hour day and have a meeting first thing in the morning so I hope this comment makes sense! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are really gorgeous photos! I will try and send some of our rain your way.
ReplyDeleteLove that first photo of Gabby. So beautiful. Hope you have her mom's email address! I also love the cherry mug with the color palette--how delightful!
ReplyDeleteShe's so pretty and as she gets older she'll be wanting her photo taken more often! Your mug palette is lovely aswell. Thanks for joining in this week
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of Gabby and Toby! They are both darling.
