My oldest son loves sharks. Passionately. The other day he really wanted to watch a movie about them, but I couldn’t find one that doesn’t involve sharks killing people. So I found a documentary about a young man, who also loves sharks, and spends his life photographing and studying them. But sharks are endangered, so instead…

Today I received my film from our annual family trip to the beach, which included four rolls filled with images of my two boys (ages 3 and 1) and their cousins running on the sand and swimming in the ocean.

I am feeling a touch of the end of the year blues this year. I think that is because if I had to pick one photo to describe 2013, it would be this one… I definitely bit off way more than I could chew this year… But 2013 did not always play nice…No matter how…
