Hullo? Anybody home?
I have fallen off the face of blogger Earth. No reason. I just dropped the ball there for a while, and didn't feel the least bit guilty about it. I over-volunteered this month and last and was having a bit of a scramble. Still not out of the weeds, but there's hope. Always hope.
Well, even if I'm the only one who sees them, I'm posting some of the pictures from my digital 2 photography class. This class has kicked my butt a bit -- again, wishing I had more time for it -- but it's so good to be pushed out of that comfort zone once in a while.
Our first project was portraits. I started out with the idea of shooting my identical twins to capture what makes looking at twins so intriguing. I see them so much as individuals that it surprises me when people say they can't tell them apart or refer to them as "the twins." Somehow, I thought maybe I would play up the similarities though, since the similarities make them special too (and they enjoy it). But in the end, I just see them as I see them -- as individuals. And, I think, that's how these portraits turned out.

I can't believe you got them to sit for portraits. The portraits ('cause that what they are, not just photos) are lovely. I love all the texture you've managed to get in them. You've inspired me to try to get my son in morenthan a snapshot!
Jill - these are wonderful. Really really great work. They are gorgeous - the kids and the images you made!
Oh how I wish my boys would sit like this. Was it hard to get them to? How many outtakes do you have? Love to see those! Outstanding work Jill.
