Sorry, I tried to post a short video of my grand-daughter and it won't work. Later maybe, when I get it figured out.

Niamh, I love your black and white photo. You did a great job. Keep taking those; they have a certain charm.

Thanks Janine! :D I really love taking photos, and theres just something about getting wonderful shots from a good camera. I just love taking good B&Ws. I think i'm getting better at it too. So far i'm really proud of three of my b&Ws. :) the one of Buckingham palace and the one of Machester Cathedral, both of which are also in here, and of course the one above. :)

Hi Niamh! All the ones you have been posting lately I just love...the old buildings are so interesting and your shots were really well done. I haven't been on this thread too much lately; but now and then, I check in and I saw all the cool ones your posted so far, or at least, I think I did. I will recheck the last page in case I missed anything.

Here's a video of my grand-daughter, Brooke's recent performance on the 4th of July, on her little toy piano. I love her style; I think we have a 'Star' in the making! Enjoy this quick video, taken by my son's wife.

As my friend Lynne said "I love how she was keeping time with her foot. And the music just knocked her off her feet."

Hahah..she is so graceful dismounting the stool! I just had to share this with all of you on this thread.

soooo cute! Look she's swaying to the music too. I vote this to be the MTV Music Video of the Year.

Hahaha that is so cute. I loved it Janine. She's the next Mozart I'm sure. ;) Is that her mother beside her?

Thanks Virgil, I thought it was precious, too....wow, how these little cameras can now catch such a moment in time. I laughed at her dismount; it seemed she didn't take note just how to get off the piano stool; she was too preoccuppied with the music.

She's walking now; my son called to tell us so. He says she walks all around the whole downstairs. I bet she looks cute, cause she is so little. No, that's not her mother speaking, it's her mother's mom, Myra, Brooke's other grandmother. Wish I had been there too. I guess Michelle was taking the video. They both were laughing.

Now that I know how to post the videos I have a few more I can post from months back. They are so cute, but I think this one is the definitely winner!

Haunted, thanks for taking the time to view it and your comments. I just love this video now the best. I have several others. I think you are right - this should be the MTV Music Video of the Year, maybe baby category....do they have one?

If there isn't a baby category, we'll make one!

Ok, I will have to write one. I think there should be a baby category...maybe even on Youtube. I bet those would be the greatest videos, don't you? Wish I could combine all these little videos I have of Brooke and put them on a disk or make one longer video. Now that is your expertise, not mine, Haunted!

Yes, thanks; she really is a sweetheart, Virgil. I think this age is so cute too, don't you? They are so busy doing everything and seeing, discovering everything around them. They don't miss a trick.

I was thinking the same as Lynne. its so cute how she looks like she is pushing her foot down on peddles to the music! :D

Interesting comparison. The color pulls the eye to the right, toward the grassy area of the hill on the right, while the balck and white, having extinguished color contrast, pulls the eye toward the center merge point of the hills.

Perhaps it's just me but I tend to like most nature scenes in color. Now portraits can look good in either.

Thanks Niamh.
