my most treasured...

i shot some photos of my kids on their last day off of their 4 day weekend. i am so incredibly proud of them. they are such amazing and good kids. :) i know i'm biased. but really...they are remarkable.

getting my son, however to let me take photos of him, is another story..i got a few shots. he HATES getting his photo taken - wonder where he got that from!?? and miss rosie - she's so fashionable, and is posin' and stuff..she rocks it. :)

here's a few from our mini-session.. :)

cocaine in 1897

my friend sent this to me...quite an interesting read..my how times have changed. :)

In 1879 cocaine began to be used to treat morphine addiction. Cocaine was introduced into clinical use as a local anaesthetic in Germany in 1884, about the same time as Sigmund Freud published his work Über Coca, in which he wrote that cocaine causes:

...exhilaration and lasting euphoria, which in no way differs from the normal euphoria of the healthy person...You perceive an increase of self-control and possess more vitality and capacity for work....In other words, you are simply normal, and it is soon hard to believe you are under the influence of any drug....Long intensive physical work is performed without any fatigue...This result is enjoyed without any of the unpleasant after-effects that follow exhilaration brought about by alcohol....Absolutely no craving for the further use of cocaine appears after the first, or even after repeated taking of the drug...

the other day while their mommy was at the chiropractor, we went for a stroll thru the heights in burnaby..
and of course...i brought my camera. :)

enjoy!

a week of photo walking..

i love walking around with my camera taking photos.
i try to take my camera everywhere..
not cuz i have to but cuz i want to..
cuz i find it helps me appreciate the little things in life even more..
and who says learning to appreciate life even MORE is a bad thing!? :)

here's last weeks photos from several photo walks.. :)
