The last couple of days when I've gone to make comments on other photos, I found that many were in large format, all in a row -- and I didn't see a way to leave a comment.  Are a lot of you changing the format of your galleries?  Is it a smugmug thing?  Is there a trick to leaving comments when the galleries are in that format?  Am I missing something? ....  which is entirely possible.   :-)

irishmurr > We went to a pool tournament with our car club.  Luckily, the people whose house it was at live on a beautiful lake and I was able to get out and take a few shots of the fall colors.  (October 3, 2009)

irishmurr > My fuschia are enjoying the cooler temperatures -- they're starting to bloom again.  (September 15, 2009)



"A flower's appeal is in its contradictions - so delicate in form yet strong in fragrance, so small in size yet big in beauty, so short in life yet long on effect."

irishmurr > Caught in the act -- Maeve likes grandma's flowers almost as much as grandma does.  (August 25, 2009)

Sorry I haven't been able to comment the last day or so.  I have hundreds of family photos that were taken this summer and which need to get posted.  The natives are getting restless and if I don't get them done, they may find someone else to be family photographer .....  :-)

irishmurr > What a day .....

We started out at  our annual car show with the Cadillac club, for which Larry and I were Grand Marshalls.  Someone found out it was our 25th anniversary and they gathered up photos of us from over the years and displayed them for all the world to see.  Then, in the evening we had plans to go to dinner with friends -- except when we arrived at their house, there were about 50 family and friends there to surprise us.  Whew!  How do you pick one photo from a day like that?  And this is one I didn't even take -- our son Chas took it of us cutting the cake (and yes, they made us feed it to each other too).  I think we're done celebrating -- until our 50th anniversary rolls around.  :-)
