10/23/08 ~ Thanks so much to Tanya from Around Roanoke Daily Photo Blog
10/23/08 ~ Thanks also to Laurie from Glimpses of South Pasadena and your very kind words (to follow) . . .
"With gratitude and great pleasure I would like to pass the award to these photography bloggers:
Hope of Knoxville Daily Photo. Hope can squeeze images out of her Nikon Coolpix that will astonish you. The photographs of her kids capture the essence of childhood and a mother's love with the same poignancy and joy of the paintings of Mary Cassatt..."
Tanya and Laurie . . . . I am truly honored and flattered that you have chosen me to receive this award. Sincere thanks to both of you for this award and your nice comments!

Fantastic shot! The yellow bars against the blue sky and your son's expression are wonderful.
I think boys are half monkey! Your boy is cute! That yellow pops against that bright blue sky!
Look at him go, great photo. Brings back memories of my own son at that age. Enjoyed visiting and looking at all your other lovely photos.
Wonderful post. I liked the slide show too. You are doing some really nice photography.
Outstanding shot. The fact that you didn't lose the face tones of the boy against the bright background amazes me.
Terrific photo - with action & concentration visible on your son's face with the great colors of the sky & the jungle gym. Perfect sunrise shot too - you get great colors - mine get too washed out.
BTW - I looked thru your Picassa photos - they are just wonderful. The one of the baby & son peaking out & the son on the shutters are award winning photos.
Thanks, Tash, for visiting my blog and leaving the very kind comments. Those photos in my Picasa album will be posting on my blog in the next few days. I appreciate all the kindnesses everyone has shown me around the CDP site. I'm kinda new to photo blogging and am still not confident in my photo abilities.
Thanks everyone for your kind words.

This would make a great Skywatch photo!
Thanks, Rambling Round! I haven't quite gotten involved in the Skywatch group just yet. Photo blogging is all so new to me. I'm just getting started. Maybe someday :)
Great heavens, Hope. You shot this with a point and shoot? Did you use a flash fill? I'm amazed at the tones in your son's face, too -- like Abe. This is outstanding. You have the gift, girl. Truly.
Thank you, everyone, for all the nice comments.
Laurie, I didn't use a fill flash on this photo. And I did use a point & shoot...my old camera...the Nikon Coolpix 5900.
I only use my little digitals as I haven't learned how to use the pro cameras. My husband has offered to teach me, as he uses pro equipment...Nikons, Leicas, Olympus, etc.
I agree with the others, this photo is outstanding! Love it. :)
