Happy New Year! (Also: WDYPTF 12/1-31/1)
Happy New Year, everyone! Just got back from Germany last night where I spent a very pleasant week with my girlfriend's parents. I'd never met them before, and they'd never met any of my girlfriend's previous boyfriends - so it was all a bit nerve-racking at first...
But then... I discovered that the father was the proud owner of a new Pentax K10D and had just started a digital photography course in the next town, and so we had plenty to bond over, including my girlfriend's Panasonic FZ7, which kept mysteriously gravitating towards his study...
I also discovered that the mother was very fond her of daughter, and very fond, too, of pictures of her daughter looking lovely - of which I have many.
Photography's been many things to me over the years but something to get you into the good books of potential in-laws is a new one to me :-)
Anyway, we did lots of fine, photographable things, including a trip to Wilhema Zoo.
