Road Trip Photo of the Day: PEI National Park
I love this photo for three reasons. One, it is better than any of our wedding photos–though to be fair, our wedding photos really sucked.
Two, I took it myself. One shot, using the timer with the camera balanced on the unmanned lifeguard stand. I don’t have live view on my camera (and couldn’t bend in a way that allowed me to look through the viewfinder), so I had no idea how it would be framed until after it was taken. I hit the shutter button and ran over and kissed him. It is perfect.
And three, it proves a very important point. Many people expressed concern for our marriage when we decided to take a month-long road trip–ourselves included. We’ve been living in very close quarters and spending many hours together in a very small car whilst being pelted by rain on Canadian highways. But do we still love each other? You bet. Even more than when we left.
LOVE THIS!
Thanks! I appreciate your capital letters. 😉
Great picture. When you get home you should have a 16×20 made, frame it and hang it in your living room.
seconded.
As soon as my husband saw it–after I uploaded it–he said ‘we need to have this framed’. Have I mentioned that I love him?
Wonderful shot- have a calendar made of your favorite shots from this trip- and make this one the month of your wedding anniversary.
I agree, this one is a “framer”. Beautiful!
Thanks! We’re currently debating where to hang it (you know, after I buy a print and a frame–we still have prints and frames from last year’s trip that are not up yet!)
