Those of you who are following the tutorials as well as the blog may have thought that using portraits as the theme for this month's issue was a bit ironic, as I've hardly posted any portraits over recent months, and very few of those have been of the kids. So today I thought it was definitely about time that I made the effort.

And I'm glad that I did, because I got three shots that I like. This one, and tomorrow's, are both of Rhowan, taken outside our house as we waited for everyone else to get ready to go out for a walk, while the one I'll be putting up on Tuesday is a shot of Rhowan and Harmony.

Oh, and if you like this one, make sure that you come back tomorrow. I like this one, but I'm really happy with tomorrow's. That said, do let me know what you think of this one.

And finally, if you're interested, the original is here:
