7/365   Spider Plant

I love indoor plants.  There are a couple that I manage to not only keep alive, but keep healthy.  This is one of them.  

My roommate has three cats who are very persistent at swatting at anything hanging, so I need to keep this one in my bedroom.  I also need to keep my bedroom door shut so they can't get to the plant.  

I'd love to get more plants, but it's basically just throwing money away while the cats are here.

I guess I'll just have to take joy from this one.

Another Family Portrait

When I opened Jaymee's blog yesterday and saw her post of a family portrait, it took me aback for a minute--"did I already post to my blog and forget?" (something which is totally possible--forgetting that is). But no, she posted her own family portrait--and a really nice one I might add.

This is my late post for Sunday. I had a job to photograph this family. We met on the Cobleskill College campus in this nice little flowered area. The timing was perfect because this side was shaded and right behind my back (a mirror image of the side you see) the setting was in full sun. And boy was it bright and hot. So we were able to use this shaded area for quite some time before the sun moved enough to ruin the beautiful light.

The babies, all boys obviously and each one as cute as the other, are within 5 months of each other. A very, very nice family.
