The Next Ansel Adams or Ron Galella?

HIGH: Playdate with Giada :)
LOW: Yucky weather so we didn't make it to the zoo :(


Today my girlfriend Jessica and I had every intention of taking the girls to the zoo.  Then we woke up and realized that today was just NOT  a zoo day.  It was cold, windy, and on the verge of rain all day long.  So we decided a jammie day playdate with some Louie's for lunch was a much better fit.

While we waited for Jessica and Giada to get here we snuggled on our favorite blanket and took some "kissy pictures" as Claire calls them.






Apparently Claire and I love to get pictures of us kissing Oliver.


Even Pete got in on the action.
You can't tell but, he really loves when Claire snuggles with him.


Claire and Giada has a blast playing today (as always).

Then Claire decided that she wanted to take some pictures.


Me and Giada.


Giada practiced her hand at photography as well.


But Claire was the one who really embraced the sport of capturing her subject.  Here is Giada's legs.


Her arm.


Her fanny.


Her nose.


Aunt Jessica's hair.


And me.  I think she really captures my true essence of searching for Max and Ruby.



 This was her stance as she took her pictures.  Notice she put the strap behind her head.  And her face is ALL business.



She is very focused and leans in to get that perfect shot.


And of course the ever popular "self portrait".

So I haven't decided if she has more of an Ansel Adams approach or if she really captures the beauty of human subjects like Ron Galella.  I will let you be the judge.
