Project 52: Black and White

My guess is since most of my followers are also Facebook friends, most of you saw me post this picture yesterday for my nephew, but this is my picture for the Black and White subject. I was given the oppurtunity to take my  nephew's senior pictures while back home this past month.

I know that I am far from a professional, but I believe that my pictures at least show some artistic flare. I have always wanted to take/have pictures of me taken on railroad tracks. It proved more difficult than I had expected to find a piece of railroad that wasn't occupied but the searching and driving the countryside was totally worth it for the pictures! If the random truck without its driver hadn't been parked near by I think we could have even taken some pictures on the car parked in the left of this picture!

Graduation Day!

  Waking up at 4 am is not something I will ever enjoy! But we definitely were up and dressed up, and out the door by 5 yesterday and glad we were. Although it said it was only going to be a 3.5 hour drive it took us 5 hours to get there and we arrived just in time to watch most of the ceremony.

  Here are a few pictures from the Ceremony:

Dustin was the Guidon Barer which made him easy to find!!

      After sitting through the ceremony we tried to wear out Kyra so her ride home would go more smoothly and it was nice to spend a little time with her daddy!! And it certainly didn't workout.

      Since Grafenwoher is really close to the Czech Republic we wanted to go to the border and just walk across to say we made it to another country, and than turn around and head home. But when we got to the border there was no where to turn around on the divided highway and we ended up going about 10 miles into the country to turn around, but it was still a quick trip. And now we can say we have been there. Although I would have to say that at least in the area we were it was a very dirty place, with trash all over the side of the road.
