Picnic

In celebration of Blogger's revamped image hosting capabilities, I present for your viewing pleasure a sunset picnic with the Metcalfs. This evening, so peaceful-looking in pictures, included many exciting things as well, encompassing (but not limited to): Grouchy attitudes; lil' punk brothers; critical examination of some poor anonymous surfer's activities; goofy faces; mothers who want too many pictures (but don't get them); some complaining; meditations on homelessness; arguments over frozen yogurt (toppings or no toppings?).

whoa, it's 2010... back in business

Sorry the interim since my last post has been so abominably long. I must be gettin' lazy or something. To make up for it, here is a sizable collection of photos. Most of them are from my time at home over winter break, though this first shot is from last summer.

Summer time has come and gone

Well, I intended to post some pictures of summer as it wound down, but (rather unsurprisingly) I didn't get around to it quickly enough. So, here I am back at school. Classes started yesterday, and I already feel surrounded by the joy that permeates Grace campus. It's so good to be back!

Nevertheless, summer abounded with the blessings of refreshment, relaxation, and free time to follow inspiration at leisure. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to reconnect with everyone in Hawaii, and I appreciate my island of aloha more than I ever have before.

Just a taste...

One more piece of artwork from this summer...

New 300mm lens is great for catching shots of kids at the beach.

The boys don't think I got enough pics of them. But I DID tell 'em not to go out so far...
