The Gallery: Joy


In Week 7 of The Gallery, the prompt from Tara at Sticky Fingers is Joy. A million miles away from last weeks prompt of Ugly.  I think a lot of people will go for photographs of their children this week. Rightly so, I mean whose children are not their pride and joy?

I too love my kids to bits, but after a long busy day, there is nothing that fills me with more joy than when they are in their PJ’s, and about to go to bed. Ah, come on, you’re with me on that one? Aren’t you?

When I told the 14 year old what I wanted to take a picture of, she was a bit reluctant.  But like most Teens, the relationship survives on bartering & bullying (and that’s her). She eventually obliged.

I think the out takes below are even funnier, so cooperative! Thanks again for everyone’s comments last week, I think you are all wonderful, and I love going through everyone’s posts to see the various interpretations.

These are lovely, great idea to contrast the final image with the outtakes. Love the way your eldest looks so relaxed and in the know handling her little bro!

Great photos.
The bit when my daughter is asleep and I get a few hours to myself is also rather joyful! As much as I adore spending time with her, those few hours are lovely.

Thank the teen from us for agreeing to pose – one for her bedroom wall I should think! x

I love the pictures with the baby struggling to get away, you only have so much time don’t you. :0)
