It had been close to 10 years since I'd been in a rowing shell. Thanks to Nicky and her clever persuasions, Jen & I found ourselves out on the water at Elk Lake once again... and everything was as I remembered. The cool mists, the quiet stillness, the smell of lake water, the natural rhythm of the boat - I can't imagine why I let this beautiful sport go. t. xxoo
This was my 3rd time doing Marianna's xmas pics for Lina & Santo - so hard to believe she's grown so much. I was thrilled when Lina equipped me with "banana pants"... the smiles that those 2 words drew out were priceless! Big thanks, and lots of love :) t. xxoo
So exciting - the newest member of the fam! I was overcome with emotion when I met Aleta & Loren's beautiful little girl... as her name suggests, there is definitely something wise about her. Love, love, love. Congrats again, guys - she is awesome :) t. xxoo
My amazing friends Jen & Brent welcomed little Thea into the world last May, and I finally had the pleasure of meeting her this summer. What a sweetie! So cuddly, curious, and intent. Of course, Barkley had to be included as well. t. xxoo
The final leg of our journey... islands without vehicles, oceanfront pools, waterfalls, temple offerings, and MONKEYS!!! We became entirely obsessed with them. :) I couldn't believe I caught this one little guy doing his morning yoga outside his temple home. Or the way they peered into their reflections in my lens... magic!
these are all shots from my favourite place in indo - Komodo National Park. remote beaches, unbelievable wildlife, and world-class dive spots... absolutely stunning! please let me know if you're getting bored of indo... there's still more to come! as always, i welcome your feedback :) t. xxoo
