A Cookie Picnic at the Creek



Playing Pooh Sticks.


Of course, she tried to eat it.


Everything tastes better when eaten outdoors.


Tadpoles!

oh lovely. and we got snow again this morning.

hey, are you going to try the pizza dough link you have in your sidebar? I'd be curious to hear your thoughts because I know we've discussed homemade pizza before.

I don't have a baking stone, though. . .

Yes, yes, yes! We played Pooh sticks too. Oh, this brought the best memories flooding back. Love Pooh sticks!

You captured a great moment. I love the black and whites.

Margo -- I haven't tried that particular pizza crust recipe/method yet. I've been on a quest for a LONG time for a pizza crust that we love. Last week, somewhat on a whim, I used the one printed on the back of the bag of flour and it was surprisingly good. I'm going to tweak it a bit and perhaps use some of the tips included in the linked recipe on my sidebar. I'll be happy to share my thoughts.

Except tadpoles...tadpoles are better when eaten outdoors. :) lovely b/w. Do you set b/w on your d60 or edit afterwards? which do you prefer?

Ruth -- For these photos I set the camera to black and white before shooting, which is what I prefer. The spectrum of grays, as well as the white and the black seem to be truer that way. However, editing after the fact is very convenient and is also an option that I use often.

No eating of tadpoles allowed!

oh dear, i have been reading you for a looong time. I remember little brother -- quite little --- down at the creek in springtime.

Dandelions are healthy, unless coated in pesticide. Eat away : )

I haven't seen a tadpole in forever! So magical, they are.
