Day 64 - will you still need me, will you still feed me....

The effects of a long rough winter takes its toll on the neighbors wheelbarrow. Beaten and worn but ready to take on the haulings of another day this wheelbarrow sits propped up against a red barn slowly decaying with the passage of time. I took a walk outside yesterday with the warm air and saw many things I walk by all the time and don't notice. My neighbor has a large yard and at over 80 years of age he keeps busy trying to maintain the whole thing. Having one of these around definitely helps save an aching back.

A simple shot, I like the shots of old barnyards, worn tools. Sitting in the sunlight makes it feel like a warm summers day. And while we are in the midst of winter still this gives you the hope of those warmer ones ahead. So basically I'm saying, this photo creates a sense of warmth with a simple shot of an oh so common piece of yard equipment....

....when I'm 64!!!.....

Day 54 - Michelle, ma belle......

Well hello there my darling. I decided to get a shot of my lovely fiancee unbeknownst to her she would be ending up on my picture of the day today. Her she is focused intently on the baby and making sure he gets every little bit of that oh so tasty formula inside him. He's a growing boy you know. He's eating quite well and Mom and I are very happy and excited about our brand new baby boy. I hope he knows how much time we take to care for him.

I love this shot. The setting sunlight coming in on the left side creating such great shadows on the opposite side of her face. Well I have to like the shot anyways it's of my honey... I think the colors, and the darkness in the picture adds to the shot and doesn't really take away from anything.


....These are words that go together well, My Michelle.....
