Doesn't this look like it could be any album cover? More from this session later but this will be My Best Shot for today.
We had a pretty uneventful weekend. Just chilled mostly, swam a lot, enjoyed the backyard. We've been watching some of the Olympics. Natalya has really liked watching the dressage event and even said that she wanted to do that at the Olympics one day. I think that Vienne will get more of a kick out of rhythmic gymnastics and that starts on the 21st. It's actually one of my faves too. But, wow! Did anyone else catch the men's 4x100m freestyle relay last night? You just can't get any more exciting than that. If you missed it you'll have to find the highlights somewhere.
Happy Monday!

great mood you've created in this photo. the text and texture work perfectly together -- nice job!
This does look like an album cover - and I love the texturing you used!
And you're right about the 4x100 - WOW! I think that will remain one of my favorite Olympic moments EVER!
That TOTALLY looks like an album cover. Very cool. My kids have been enjoying the Olympics too. My little girl wants to be a gymnast now.
Oh, I like that pic! It would be great in a coffee house too!
We too have really been enjoying the Olympics, our little guy is really into them this year and will look for the USA competitor and if there is none then he cheers for the flag that he likes the best! Happy Monday!
VERY cool picture my dear :-P...(that's me with my tongue hangig out hahah)
Olympics? What did the US win a medal or something? hahahah. Still, we Aussies are making a bit of a mark in the pool.....fingers crossed.
that is simply fabulous.
Wonderful shot! You're right it's got boy band album cover written all over it. I love the soft faded look you gave the image. Very nice.
Yep, we watched a lot of Olympics too. There sure seemed to be a lot of new records and US gold in the swimming that's for sure. :)
What an AWESOME album cover that would be! Love teh muted colors and a little but of sun peeking over his right shoulder. Stunning.
Wow, it totally does look like an album cover! Truly awesome!
But I have to admit, I was expecting to see your crazy dog based on the title of this post. ;)
My girl is gymnastics crazy now, too. Maybe she'll follow in the steps of another Nadia. ;)
Yes, I would say that looks like an album cover...nice work! We've been trying to get the kids to watch the olympics, too, but not with much success. Loved that yesterday, too. :)

What a beautiful composition. I love everything about it!
And yes - I did see the swimming last night. I got the goosebumps right up through thr end. That was a great competition.
I love that! Looks like a shot from the 60s of a folk singer. Really great mood you've created.
THAT shot rocks! Would have been great for Theme Thursday this week, too! I can't wait to see the rest of the shoot!
(And yes, I am draggin' butt today b/c I just HAD to stay up and watch the relay last night. So worth every lost moment of sleep, though...it was AWESOME!)
