Best Photos of 2012
I’m no photographer but I do love taking photos. And I do like posting them on my blog; linkys like The Gallery and Silent Sunday help break up my sometimes word-heavy week of posting.
Today is the last day of 2013 and and I’m linking this post up with the talented TheBoyAndMe and her Photographic Flashback of 2012.
Her challenge to us was to choose 12 photos, one for each month, out of all the photos we’ve taken over the whole year. This has not been an easy task, but here are my 12. I decided to chose ones that had my family in them, rather than ones where I’d attempted to be arty farty. There are less of the older DDs as they are not so happy about being photographed as they get older, and I can’t be bothered chasing them around for the sake of a shot.
The girls on the swinging chairs at Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park.
February
DD3 and DS’s joint birthday party.
DS not sure about being in a bubble; he had to wear his coat. DD was disappointed that the bubble wasn’t a sphere that would float away with her in it.
March
Off for a family picnic in the woods.
April
DS riding a camel with DH in the Jordanian desert
May
DD2 and friends watch the balloon race start at the School Spring Fair.
June
Celebrating the Diamond Jubilee with Queenie.
July
DS at the top of a caldera called Kerid in Iceland.
August
Watching the sunset on the beach in Swakopmund, Namibia.
September
All four at school. At last.
October
Did you hear the one about the wooden TV? It wouldn’t work! (Groan)
November
DS and The Lurcher at the local Remberance parade.
