They were excited to see that the swings were open. They wanted pics of them flying high. I had to lay on the sand to get a couple of these and endure the funny looks of a few parents but what does that matter when you're trying to get a good shot? I would have liked some better images but I think these were worth the wetness of my prone position.

On The Baseball Backstop
Paul really wanted to climb the baseball backstop at the Washago Park. I wasn't sure that it would make for a good shot but anytime my boys want me to take a picture of them, I'm ususally game. I think Paul would have gone even higher but the netting was pretty rusty and he thought he might fall through. I don't think I would have liked taking pictures of that!

Racing
I was tempted to call this "Running" but when my boys are together they don't really run, they race. It's all about finishing first.

Admiring the Art
Paul requested this shot. He's a huge admirer of graffiti. Daniel thought this was pretty shoddy work but Paul was convinced that the "artist" meant for the paint to run like it did.

Red Bench
When I said to do something on the red benches, Daniel's first idea was to lay on them like a homeless person. Paul moved far away from his bum of a brother and posed nicely on his. These shots are too busy for me with all the background noise but I still like those bright red benches and of course, I love the homeless hobo and the respectable lad posing on them.

Location, Location
Background is very, very important to me. In my opinion, it can make the difference between a good shot and a great one. I'm always placing my boys with the background in mind. They couldn't at all see why I wanted them in these scrabbly bushes but I saw something there and like how the natural background enhances the calm and thoughtful poses of my boys.

Tough Guy
The boys graciously let me photograph them yesterday for Mother's Day. It was painful (for them) at times but I'm so happy to have new pics of them. We have a hard time coming up with poses. I keep saying, "Do something interesting." and they keep replying, "Like what?" For this shot I instructed Paul to lean against the building and look natural. He's very cooperative and did just what I asked. I love this boy. He's my tough guy.
