North Carolina – Not So SAHM

Back against the wall

I found another great wall in the downtown Fayetteville area. My girls have always been willing subjects, and you can tell my youngest was striking a pose. On another note, I have ten more days of the year-long challenge! I started on 01 Feb 2016 editing a picture a day. In some ways it hasContinue reading “Back against the wall”

Reflection

When we lived in North Carolina, I went out with a photographer friend to shoot around our town. Being in the middle of the week, my kids came along. It was a chilly and overcast day and we were walking around a more industrial part of town. Leave it to kids to find something toContinue reading “Reflection”

Here we’re rooting for the Fayetteville Fire Antz. The original was flat and a little dark. I cropped in to put the focusContinue reading “Hockey action”
