Was he trying to wiggle his way back off the rock? Or merely warming his toes in the Florida sunshine?  I have no idea. Hopefully he didn’t linger too long.  Alligators were cruising nearby.

I heard no music but watched the dance.  An elegant glide by two gruesome gators.  First, a side-by-side swim that sent fish splashing away and birds to take wing. Followed by a little snuggle time…

Psst…  Are my teeth OK? Did I get all the feathers out?

Just a Peek

My dad must have known that same little thrill during our “photo hikes”,  watching his daughter lose herself in the framing of visual elements -twisted upward, bent over or kneeling in the dirt, aiming her lens as she focused and fingered the shutter on her camera… That was me way back when, and is me yet today.

Wish I could gesture toward one of my own three kids and tell him, “I get it.”

Because I do.  “Mom, I see a shot!”  “Mom, can I use the extra camera?”  Those words warm my heart.  Those words mean that my kids are engrossed in a moment.  Living in the present; savoring it and saving it, to relish and share again later.


A photo reveals the foremost details and the chosen perspective of the photographer.  It can be an intimate telling of the heart. I like to think that, through their photos, for a moment I am seeing the world through the eyes of my children.
