What you see here is possibly a bit misleading. That’s Elizabeth, my youngest, and I reading a book. She’s developed a real love of books and will trot over with one in her hands before crawling into your lap and insisting you read it to her.
I love the look on her face in this image. I’m hoping she’ll always love books and learning as much as she seems to right now.
What you’re actually looking at, however, is an experimental shot I took with my new camera. Keen to improve the quality of images on my blog, I’ve invested in a better camera and a tripod. I was experimenting with the various settings and this image was taken in black and white mode with a timer.
Spending serious money on this equipment has re-ignited an interest in photography. I learned how to use a camera back in the old days on 35mm film. Although I’ve owned digital cameras in the past, I now want to take it more seriously as a hobby. Wish me luck!
Speaking of wishing me luck, I’ve been shortlisted in the Commentary and Campaigns category of the Brilliance in Blogging Awards. There are some superb blogs on the shortlist and I would strongly encourage you to vote. If you would consider voting for me, I’d be delighted. Simply follow this link to participate.

That’s a really lovely photo, especially the way she looks all relaxed resting her face on her hand.
Good luck with your photography and good luck with the BiBs! There is some serious competition in all of the categories, but hope you make it to the finals!

Lovely photo, it works very well in black and white. It’s such a beautiful moment captured too x
very cute, I could do the birth to 18 months over and over, my favourite time.
Awww she looks like she’s enjoying story time with daddy.
Good luck with the photography! It’s something I’d love to get in to, currently saving to buy an SLR so I can start taking it a bit more seriously 🙂
This is a very sweet photo. #mysundayphoto
I love this, her concentration and focus is wonderful and the black & white gives it extra depth. It must be lovely for you to also see her face when reading a book, because usually when she’s on your lap you don’t get to see it, or side-on at best!
Good luck with the photography
Lovely photo! My little one does that too, brings a book and sits in my lap..so cute!
