Memory a Day 20: Fave Photo You’ve Ever Taken

More than a few days behind, I’m powering on to end in the Photo a Day challenge. Day 20′s prompt was a tough one to narrow down!

Fave Photo You’ve Ever Taken

I may have shared these before, the one of the girlies tails I know I have, but perusing my photo’s they were the ones that stood out. It got me thinking of what makes a favorite photo. It’s not just the composition or the skill shown in taking the picture, I really don’t have that. For me it’s as much about the memory the image triggers. Memories of firsts, like Maizey’s first swim. Memories of lazy days at the park with the family from when Magnus was a baby. The photo of Maizey is from a walk in the country. It’s her best super model in the wind fan pose. See how her black leg hair is short? It was after her knee surgery and I remember being so happy she was recovering.

I love having a photo diary to remind me of all the things I don’t take time to remember in the whirlwind of day to day life. Do you keep a photo diary?

    I guess I consider my blog to be my photo diary!  I always buy extra storage space from google, so my photos are always available with room for more!

    I don’t think I could even narrow it down to three favorites……you did good.

    Oh wow, you definitely did a great job narrowing it down!  I don’t know what picture I would have picked.  So many memories.  I love that bottom one.

    I could never narrow it down.  I have about 1000 shots of Katie each of her 5 years.  LOL….and I’m always looking for more.
