My son David is a junior in High School this year.... already! I wanted to capture what he enjoys - he's a Linux junkie and quite a server geek. In fact, he just wrapped up a short internship at IBM this summer. He's a smart kid and It's rare that an LCD of some sort isn't bathing his face in hard blue light.

I took my girls out for a boat-camping weekend on Detroit Lake. Couldn't beat the warm temperatures, perfect swimming weather, and our well-protected anchorage.  

Impromptu meant no reflector or strobe. Mid-day light meant looking for "window light" in the shade of the shelter or nearby trees.  Abigail is a bit camera shy so it's tough to get her natural personality, but she does have amazing sharp eyes that really pop.

Some shots of my girls, captured during our evening walk this last Sunday night. We're having absolutely amazing early summer weather here in Oregon, and enjoying it all!   

On warm evenings the kids and I enjoy riding our bikes to Keizer's Staats Lake, grabbing some ice cream bars from the 7/11 across the street, and watching the migrating birds play.

This is what it looks like when my oldest, David, takes time to teach his sister, Abigail, how to create programs in Java. As a developer myself this is fun to see! 

I was on a walk with Miriam last week, she had the family point-and-shoot with her and stopped along the trail and took this shot on her own, great framing!
