as easy as flying a kite...

Sherri and I took Pyper out to fly kites today. Pyper really liked the idea of flying a kit. The trouble was, when you handed her the handle, she panicked an threw it down every time. Sooooo... Sherri and I spent alot of time flying the kites and chasing the kites when Pyper let them go. Was able to at least capture one image of the afternoon...

just like finding gold...

Every chance I get, I jump at the opportunity to take pictures of Sherri. Got a near-mint Polaroid OneStep Red Stripe over the weekend at a flea market and talked Sherri into letting me try it out. Popped in my last pack of Gold Frame Impossible film to celebrate the occasion...

the golden towers...

My gold-frame version of the Watts Towers in Los Angeles taken on a mini-polawalk with Toby Hancock...

the red tree town...

A very simple yet bold image of a tree taken in downtown Los Angeles...

out of the vines...

Ran across this mural on my way to Hermosa Beach in California. Had to turn around and come back, but the image was worth it...

sunset in LA...

My version of the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles taken during the February 2013 LA Polawalk...

ducati - california

Found this jewel in Redondo beach in California when I was there a couple of weeks ago for an LA Polawalk. Absolutely love the way the Impossible films render the red in the photos. Sure made me want to take a ride...

the surfer...

Was out walking on the pier at Hermosa Beach in California on Sunday and I saw this guy standing on the pier about to leave.  He noticed my Polaroid cameras and said something to me. After I got him hooked, I couldn't let the opportunity pass without asking him if I could take his photo. Photos like this are why I like to get out and walk around when I travel...

roses for both of us...

The benefit of me getting Sherri roses is that I get to use them for a picture.  Luckily I had some gold frame PX680 film in my SX-70 camera.  Red DEFINITELY goes with gold...

my girls...

Sherri's birthday was today... As always, I love being able to have an excuse to take pictures. Sherri and Sadi were enjoying some peanut butter cake (made by Maci).  Maci, Sherri and Pyper posed for me right before we left for the night. Notice Pyper's shiner. She got it by falling off the bed a few days ago. No matter how many times I have read her the book Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed, it just doesn't sink in that "one fell off and bumped his head"...

golden glow...

Got a little too close and the flash washed her out just a little.  The red glow goes good with the gold frame...

jentri and jayti...

What a golden opportunity!

Went to my neices graduation over the weekend. During the visit,I got to see my nephews' twins.  What a treat to get to take some instant photos when both of them were awake. They humored me for about 3-4 minutes and then they started getting upset.
