As of July 1 I began posting my daily photos over at my main blog, A Fresh Perspective.
I found the need to eliminate one blog, and since this one came second, this is the one.
I hope you will choose to join me over at A Fresh Perspective for daily photos, photo challenges,
and some other fun stuff thrown in.

Now here's something you don't see every day.  I talked my husband, Doug, into letting me take his photo today.  Yesterday was his birthday.  He is 43 now.  (The same number as Troy Polamalu's jersey ... according to Nick).  I converted the photo to sepia and cloned out the glare from his glasses.  It isn't perfect, but not too bad either.

I love the faint smile! It is rare to get my husband to take a picture...at least w/out making a totally distracting face. ;)

Looks good. I like it in sepia. How nice of him to pose for you. My husband will pose, but he'll usually do something goofy, so I'd rather catch him in the moment instead.

What a wonderful shot. I don't think it's fair that men seem to look better with age! Hope he had a great birthday.
