Day 10: A photo taken of you over ten years ago

For my photo from over ten years ago, I chose an image of me from when I was around three years old.  Yes, I was blonde then.  I love the look on my face.  I wanted desperately to be a gymnast.  I was very confident in my abilities.  You can see the obvious pride and happiness on my face as I displayed my red, velvet leotard to the world.  Yes, I was such a happy child.  This picture was taken approximately in 1995.  I was such a cutie pie.   

Day 9: A photo you have taken

I love this photograph for so many reasons.  I took this picture in the bush near Eldoret, Kenya, Africa.  These kids had never seen a white person before, let alone a camera.  I would take a photo and then turn the camera around so the kids could see their tiny images in the LCD screen.  They were amazed and all wanted to know how the camera worked.  There was so many children surrounding me and my camera, I couldn't have counted them if I tried.  I love how their smiles are automatic.  You don't have to grow up with a camera to know to smile for one.  I love the wonder on the faces of these children.  I love the vivid colors in this photograph.  I love this.
