Happy Father’s Day to my fabulous father, without whom I wouldn’t be the person that I am today.  And since I didn’t share with you all this image from Mother’s Day - thanks too to my Mom for standing behind me ready to catch me all these years. May 2011 and May 1985, respectively.

The best part about capturing this image was the part of this scene that was occurring outside of the frame: a 4 year old child reaching for the sky in longing as her balloons rose farther and farther away… before she finally resorted to waving goodbye. Boston Common, June 15, 2013.

In celebration of reaching 100 followers, I’d like to offer you all a little something in gratitude for sticking around, for all of your feedback and kind words, and for your ‘likes’ and reblogs.  

So: it’s a Tumblr-follower-give away of a free 8”x10” print!  

The Rules:
  1. Reblog this post!
  2. Make SURE you’re following me (It doesn’t matter when you started following, as long as you are following me at the end of the contest period: Sunday, June 23, 2013).
  3. Start reblogging your favorite photos that you’d like to win!  Reblog as many (or as few) as you like, but you only have to reblog one to enter, and your chances will not increase with more reblogs. (Again, “likes” are appreciated but won’t affect your chances of winning.)
  4. On Monday, June 24th I will randomly select a winner from those who reblogged this post AND who are following me, and make an announcement with the lucky person’s username.
  5. The winner have 24 hours to contact me with their address and photo of choice (if after 24hrs I haven’t heard from the winner, I’ll select another one). I’ll ship you a free 8 inch x 10 inch print to ANYWHERE in the world. (I mean, as long as you’ve got postal service and by sending you the print I’m not breaking any laws in your country of residence.)
For the tl;dr folks, the rules are pretty simple: follow me, reblog this post, and reblog ANY of my photo(s) you want to receive if you win.  At the end of the give-away I’ll randomly pick the name of ONE follower who reblogged this post. That individual will receive ONE free 8x10 print from my photos that they’ve reblogged. I will ship it (free to you!) anywhere in the world!
So: if you’re interested, make sure you’re following me, and get to reblogging!
Reblogging this because I want to make sure that each of my fabulous followers gets a chance to partake in this give-away if you’re interested. So far there’re only two entries, so your chances are looking pretty good!

This one is just a snapshot from my phone, but I have to share it anyway - because I received my first print order from ProDPI tonight! It’s exciting to hold my work in my hands after all this time.
