Sunday Stills ~ Sports

 

This week’s Sunday Stills Challenge is Sports. Being that it’s full-blown winter here this week and the only sports I’ve seen are kids sledding down snow covered hills, I had to go dig into my archives.

1)My daughter, Jenna, waiting to run the bases playing for her Pink Ponies T-Ball team.

2)Jenna playing the position of Umpire, with her brother, Jax  there to help if she needs it.

3)My son Jax stretching before playing baseball.

4)Jax, and another player, out in the Outfield.

5)Polocrosse Practice in Albuquerque.

LOVE the action of the polo ponies. And it's always good to see kidlets active with sports. Nice job. :)

Leah Fry said...

I like the action of the first polo practice pic.

And to answer your question, a dolphin on my right cheek. I also have a large tribal design with the Kanji character for "wife" across the small of my back, and the Kanji characters for "balance" on both ankles. My navel is pierced, too.

Don't make me choose! I like the first three, the stances, the facial expression and the subjects.

They are all great pictures but I like the one of Jenna waiting, you can see she is focused on the game.
Hope it has been a great weekend and I would love to see pictures of the kids in snow, I like seeing where you live in all kinds of weater, I love the place and I am way too far away!

Tammy Vasa said...

Of course I love the horses, but that first one of Jenna is priceless!

Those are fun photo's. Love the polo.

Anna Larson said...

OH Cool I see a spotty butt in the polocrosse photos! Every time we drive over to Los Lunas, we pass the plolocrosse field there, but never see anyone playing or practicing. where were your polocrosse Photos taken at?

Lori Skoog said...

Amazing shots. Hope all is going well for you.

colleen said...

Ugh! Ed picked a hard one this week for me. I don't have anything to post, so I'm working on my other blog. I started one where I could be as honest as I want and say what I think, you know how it goes with family sometimes.

Hope all is well!

I can't take my eyes off the horse in #5 - beautiful action shot!

The one of your little girl ump and her big brother is a classic. I like the treatment you gave it too, it looks older than it is.

The pic of your boy in the outfield gives us a peek at the horizon - you live in a really beautiful place! I love the colors and lines in that one.

You just have a real eye for pictures :)

cdncowgirl said...

I like them all but I really like the first one of Jenna and the one of Jax stretching. My absolute number one fav is the "Polocrosse is over" pic :)

Janice said...

Great post. I have to say I'm really partial to the polo shots.

Crystal said...

Hi Lisa
I have to say I like the plocrosse is over photo is my favorite, although the concentration in the umpire one is excellent as well.

DesertHen said...

I like the photo of Jenna playing umpire with Jax standing by to lend a hand if needed. It is a great shot!

Thanks for sharing,Lisa. I love hearing and seeing the things that make you "family". My favorite is Jenna in her pink with the background B&W. Nice shot of her. THe horses after the game was a nice shot too. But Jenna was my favorite.

It's a toss up between Jenna 'n Jax...love the concentration on their faces.

Honorable mention on the last photo too..."work is done" It captures the team spirit of a good day.

CTG Ponies said...

Awesome!!! I like them all but I love how intent Jenna is in the first one.

Mama H said...

The polo pictures are GREAT! I love them. I played polo for a short while in college; it is SO MUCH fun. Wish I had a chance to play again.
Also love the sepia tone baseball image of your son. That is beautiful.
And, isn't sledding a sport? I would love to see some sledding pictures.

Celeste said...

I love the speia tones of the last shot - they look like warriors leaving the field of battle after the fight is won.

KD said...

I really like the first photo of Jenna and the last photo of the ponies.

The Wades said...

I like the umpire shot and the picture of your son stretching.

It was nice to see some warm looking shots. Brrr.
