happy families

When visiting something like the dahlia festival, there's more to photograph than just flowers. there's moms and dads and cutie pies.












I asked if I could take a photo of the pretty girl and everybody smiled!













Wouldn't you just love to see their photos? That outfit is so stunning amidst the blossoms.
















The lady in the purple top grabbed DH and asked him to take their picture together. Look at that munchkin pose! I grabbed a shot of them while DH was getting them organized. And the teen was just SO not into the family bonding thing. Grandma didn't speak English, but she nodded a regal thanks when DH handed the camera back. He's such a good boy.









And then there's this peculiar couple . . . (photo at arm's length.)

  2. That's a handsome couple there! What a beautiful day. Those star dahlias are amazing. Such pretty flowers. And the woman in the sari could make the flowers envious with her beautiful colors.

  3. The dappled sun on your dewey, smooth skin makes you look like a movie starlet of old! What a glorious photo backdrop.
