Laughing with the Easter Bunny

This weekend I volunteered some  time to shoot for a nonprofit event where one of my clients serves on the board of directors.  I knew right away that this would be one of my favorite pictures from the day so I asked the little girl's mother if she'd mind me posting it as a POD.  I do hope she gets on line and sees this.  

Cropped to square and then used the On-One  Photo Tools soft-wash treatment to get the high key effect.

Hope in the Shadows

Yesterday Kim asked about Grace, the beautiful Kildeer mother whose nest I had been watching.  I wish I had a real  answer to report, but here's what I do know.

Her nest had been smack dab in the middle of our church parking lot (Grace Fellowship www.whatisgrace.org) -- hence her name.    Some other members had spotted her first, stacked some rocks nearby and marked the area with traffic cones to keep her safe.  I think everyone who saw her enjoyed showing her to their kids and talking about the wonders God puts into our lives.    

Over the Fourth of July weekend, someone had moved one of her markers and used it to set off fireworks. I replaced it once,  but the next day the parking lot was littered with even more firework debris and her markers had all been moved to the end of the parking lot.  There was no trace of Gracie or her eggs.

I really felt low that morning because I THINK some neighborhood kids may have  destroyed her nest.  I HOPE, however, that Grace's eggs hatched before I expected them to and that somewhere in the little drainage ditch that runs by the parking lot she  and her friend, Charity, are living happily with  Love, Joy, Peace, Hope and older cousin Chiclet.

I have yet to post the last pictures of Chiclet, but will get them up and let you all know soon.
