ILP rolling photo quarantine 2

Sylvie is practically edible!

Jaded is right. It's your first trip on a Mersey ferry! One of the most famous waterfronts in the world! OK, it was freezing and we had no snacks...

The other day in the lovely light of the Bridge House Tavern in London's cheapest postcode, SE20...

It's gone quick!

omg seth rules

haha, their hair is so funny at that stage -- sylvie's has started sticking up too.
Michael Jones' pics making me (and my wife) want to move to the UK! Looks so nice.

Never take your eyes off the juice

Ah, Caffe Nero! So many elements of my Saturday afternoon experience are present and correct in that picture. Only thing missing: the ham and mozzarella panini the girls divvy up between themselves like it's Kid Ambrosia.

SO cuet!

Every little girl should have at least one pair of stripey tights. It should be the law.

Easter Sunday! Which means egg hunt. Which means one girl ends up with a (very slightly) fuller basket than the other. Cue tears...

Excuse the intrusion from someone who never posts, just couldnt resist showing off my new daughter Eva to the ILP posse. The shark eyed little bug was born 3 weeks early (28/03/10) but is doing very well, needless to say she is a big hit with her sister.

Jazz hands! Or maybe Hula Hands?

Haha, yes, jazz hands it is, her sister is a dancing queen so this may work out quite nicely.

Your boys are now the elder statesmen of ILP!

Archie is one this week! How did that happen?

it's a LEARNING TENT!

dude meg i think it happened by the earth passing around the sun. i have never understood the whole "time flies" sentiment with babies. i feel like i have been a dad for approx 1 million years. (a good thing, obv!)

by the way a pro photog friend came by the other day for some photos of lil' louis. check this out. it's like a damn magazine!

Aha - I wondered how you came to get your hands on a Leaf 75s!

wow michael - that photo with the pools of light is amazing. it must have been hard calculating the exposure, etc.

Nah, just underexposed by 1 stop to avoid blowing out the faces, added a little punch in Lightroom.

Did your pro friend let you have a play with the Leaf camera? Most cars are cheaper than one of those!

http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4010/4551033828_ecd6e42ace.jpg
One today!

no, i didn't dare! i could tell it was expensive but i had no idea how much. and actually i still don't - i have tried to google its price but found nothing! which must put it into serious yikes territory. i mean, prices of gadgets must be the most googleable thing imaginable, yet it's like the internet barely acknowledges this thing can be bought or sold.

congratulations!

Lovely VR! A year already!
