A family weekend

In this bright sunny day, I insisted that my wife should wear a hat for sun protection. This leaved in focus her beautiful lips...

My niece is really cute. But she's very restless. A caught this wonderful portrait of her in a precious second, when my future brother in law Boggy was holding an improvised reflector from the car; it worth!

Everyone was preoccupied with different things: the fire for the BBQ, the salad, washing, playing. Having grease on my hands, I grabbed my camera and tried several shots. As I was in a hurry, and others were moving, it was a challenge to clearly focus the camera. After a little post processing, I became very proud of this "unsuccessful" portrait.

Narcis

EVERYONE of us is - more or less - suffering from a mental – let’s say “imperfection” (instead of disease). Medical students which analyze real cases symptoms remain frighten when they see those symptoms existing in their own personality as well. I don’t take this as an excuse. I’m afraid not to get worser. I pray I’ll always overcome this issue in my life; I can see’it present many times:
