I love taking pictures! I am constantly taking pictures of my kids, of myself, of my fiance, of my friends, family, the clouds, I took tons of pictures of the Lake Okeechobee fire since it was sooo big! I have folders upon folders of pictures on my computer and i have folders upon folders on my myspace. I love taking pictures because it captures memories that last a lifetime. I had pictures taken of me when i graduated high school but they were never developed so i cant look back on those moments so i guess thats why i take so many pictures now so i dont miss anything. People ask me why im always snapping pictures and they look similar. well they might look similar to them but to me they are memories that go along with those pictures. For example. there is one of my son with a cowboy hat on with a binky in his mouth, then there is another one almost exactly the same but it was taken a different day. there are some days he wants his picture taken. he goes over my moms and says "me hold sissy" well the minute he gets her in his arms he says "take picture" so we have to take his picture. even if he had a picture taken the day before. Each picture he holds her better and better. I take pictures of myself.. yes they are all similar too but i change too as well as kids do thats why i take pics of myself. for example for a time i went without having bangs, then recently i cut them so i would have bangs.. i will be taking more pictures soon because i am going to streak my hair again. so i love taking pictures no matter what it is of. I take pictures of rainbows, the palm tree in my front yard. I wish i had a camera when i had my first son so i could have taken alot more photos because when i had him i had to get the ones you had to take to walmart and get developed and believe it or not somewhere around here i still have a poloroid.. one of the older ones:) the big bulky ones. Do you like taking pictures? and do you take them because you keep them close to your heart?(if that part makes any sense)

Hey, I know that kid! - His first time*riding* a harley!
Yes, I like taking pictures...even though I need a nicer camera like you have...and I agree that there are special memories attached to each and every one. The boy on the bike and the bike itself have changed since the picture below was taken. The bike has changed a lot but the boy has changed only a little. When he's older he can see how he looked the first time he*rode* a Harley.

I love taking pics but I am into nature, animals and some humans only. I love the art they have in Second Life! There I take many many pics.
