Dating a guy with a high speed camera can only mean I will be posting a whole lot more photos. This was one of Barry's favorite photos. Life it good and I'm one very happy woman.
I've wanted a Christmas photo of me and Annie ever since I got her as a puppy. Mr. Barry finally made my wish come true. It took over 100 shots with a high speed camera to get this picture. Annie just knows when I want to take a picture and starts to ham it up with her tennis ball. There was a whole lot of wrestling going on to get her to stand still.
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
