jump and run

this is another photo from that (fateful) afternoon at the williams house. like i said, the kids were all outside running around, and being generally more photogenic than we adults were inside, talking quietly and eating potato salad. i had been trying to get a good photo of maran (sp?) williams on her trike when, in one swift motion, she leapt off in mid-pedal, causing the trike to crash to the ground, and took off running towards the sandbox.

...

friday-mp3-of-the-week: will is my friend by devendra banhart -- beautiful, quiet folk music.

so, richard linklater made a sequel to his 1995 film before sunrise. its (not surprisingly) called before sunset and apparently its pretty good. i love linklater's dialogue-centric style, and i think all of us who saw the first film wondered if he'd ever come back to wrap things up. apparently even this second film leaves room for a third.

and finally... i'm not quite sure how to handle the uproar over the "kitten photo" from a couple days ago. i'll respond to it by comment later today, and i apologize if its really upset anyone.

Wow! Maren has gotten so big. She was just a baby when I saw her, and now she has two younger brothers, even. Photos like this sure make me miss tha Chattanooga crew.

I'll take 2 mature russians, a dvd mpeg format, and a naked turkish man to go. Thanks for advertising this stuff andy!

Andy, when you asked if I've read the remarks made on your cat picture, obviously I missed the last few intense ones...As a visual appreciater, I loved how you captured the "moments" of life...facial expressions are hard to capture, which you did very well(both on the child and on the cat)...I appreciate your ability as a photographer...and when you can arouse emotions through one image, I applaude you more...

maybe it wasn't such a wise idea to condone the picture/controversy by posting it in a photo contest.

i voted for you, andy! as for "caputuring a moment" goes, you definately did that. most people only spend the time trying to take pictures of the "pretty stuff in life. this, to me, is real. and maybe isabelle shouldn't be the poster child for peta. that's ok, right? thanks for not candy-coating life.
