The other photographer in the family

As we were coming to our condo on the big island we went down a residential street. Obviously this is a well travelled street that required some speed bumps be installed to slow traffic.

As Greg drove, I was trying to get my camera focused and ready. As many speed bumps as there were on this road, I could not get a good, clear shot.

First attempt:



Second attempt:



Third and final attempt:



Good thing there is another photographer in the family!

I love the term "Speed Hump". Cracked me up. Funny how a one letter difference can really change how one reacts to a particular phrase. Obviously it moved me enough to try and get my camera out to take a photo.

On another note, I love taking photos of Greg taking photos. Why? I like to see the context in which a particular photo or photos are taken.

This is one of the photos he took when I was taking the photo of him:



This next round of photos are for Ellen and her son Patrick in memory of Monty! This little guy took up residence on our lanai.

Here is Greg taking photos of Monty II.



Here are some of the photos of Monty II that Greg took:

I'll end today's post by wishing my sister, Trish, a very Happy Birthday!  Have a great dinner with the kids at Marlai!  Hopefully they will treat you(although we know that it probably isn't likely!  HA!).  Hope you had a great day!
