An invitation to: Portraits of Love

[Dallas Dem]

Blue_in_AK's sharing of those wonderful Sebastian photos really got me thinking about what the holidays mean.

I'd be delighted if you'd join me in posting one of your favorite Portraits of Love to this thread, to share with the rest of this terrific photo-loving community.

My participation here has pretty much consisted of lurking in the background the last year, wishing I could "shoot" like so many of you can. More recently, I've jumped into the fray with a few pix here and there, and hope to continue to do so as we begin this New Year.

In the meantime, all the joy and love of our holiday season can be best summed up by the two little faces you see below.

So, how about sharing your Portraits of Love?

Very nice thread idea.

[Dallas Dem]

8. Not sure why..........

......I'm able to see it on my end, but not showing up for everyone else. Will have to work on it.

10. URLs with an underscore or a dash seem to wreak havoc

with visibility, especially in Firefox. I have no idea why.

[Dallas Dem]

13. I can see why....

....that's a wonderful picture.

BTW, our eldest daughter just had twins. Yesterday. Girl and a boy.

We doubled the grandkid count, overnight (3 girls, 1 boy).

And two more photo subjects.......hooray!!

15. Thanks to those that are posting....

Still having trouble on my end with the hosting issue.........nothing seems to be working, even though I can see the pictures on my end. Strange.

Open to all suggestions.

17. How's this?

[Dallas Dem]

18. You are TOO kind......

.......and we thank you, thank you, thank you.

Still not sure why this one posted image just kept getting hung up.

But those are the faces that greet us with love, every time we see them. Lucky for us, they are less than an hour away.

21. A favorite saying of.....

.......my wife's is:

"If I knew having grandchildren was going to be so great......I would have had them first."

Thank you for sharing!
