silly faces

every time we go to the lake house - we spend 70% of our time at the lake.

who wouldn't?

and of that 70% of the time, 90% of the time D is being pulled behind my father's boat.

either he's skiing, wake-boarding, or knee-boarding.

[okay so maybe 90% is too much, let's just say, he usually leaves the lake extremely sore and bruised]

i got a new lens this summer [a 75-300mm for all those interested :D] and it was perfect to use to shoot off the back of the boat! the other lenses i had got me close, but not close enough - and that thing - wow could i get close!

close enough to capture some of D's pretty awesome knee-boarding skills :)

as you can see, he was getting really confident and trying to jump some waves - some worked out great and some worked out, well, not so great :)

he then dared my cousin zeb to try it and see how high he could jump.

again, same results, some worked out great and some worked out, well, not so great :)

all in all - they were great entertainment for us staying dry in the boat :)
