School is a Bad Word

We were not allowed to say "school" over the summer vacation. Jeremy said it was a bad word and it should not be uttered all summer. I wish he enjoyed school but he does not- with the exception of being with his friends. He had to start back this week and he was dreading it. I'm not thrilled about the rush to get ready in the morning and bugging him about homework at night. The summer seems much longer when you are a kid!

Here are a few pictures of one of his best summer memories... being at the beach.




Excuse the quality of this last shot. It was taken with my sell phone at Painter's - our favorite ice cream shop in North Myrtle Beach.

I think he is eating cookie dough ice cream.

Beach Crowds

I was very excited about getting out on the beach this summer and taking some more crowd shots.
I have talked about my love of capturing a crowd before. When I take the shot I am looking at the image as a whole, but when I open it up on my computer I can observe all the people, activity and interaction. It is like seeing the photograph in a whole new way.
