I heart faces - January Photo Challenge

So, as part of my word for 2013 [action] I am trying to get a little bit more involved. I thought I would enter this months Photo Challenge on I Heart Faces. They're looking for the best face of 2012. I did a little impromptu photo shoot in the back yard in October, before all the leaves had fallen off the trees and been raked up. I love this picture of my girl. It's my favourite to date. 
 

Photo Challenge - A Touch of Sun

I sometimes tend to stay away from these challenges, but I have a picture that fits this challenge perfectly. I couldn't resist.

I took this photo of Barry and the kids in the summer, my sole purpose was trying to achieve the sun 'flare'. I was quite pleased with how it turned out.
