I<\/span>t has been a very exciting couple of days for Mothership Photography<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Remember the I Heart Faces photo challenge<\/a> I entered? My picture of Lucas jumping into a puddle came in second out of nearly 450 entries! How cool is that? <\/p>\n

And!! As if that weren’t exciting enough, I got a note from the office of our city councillor Scott Moffatt<\/a>, asking if they could use one of my pictures<\/a> in an ad for Dickinson Days<\/a>, Manotick’s annual summer festival. The ad will run in this week’s Manotick Messenger <\/em>– my first print photo credit! Wanna see a sneak peek?<\/p>\n

\"Manotick<\/p>\n

Isn’t that fun? I took the pictures last Saturday, a perfect and highly photogenic early-summer morning in Manotick. I liked how the collage came together so much that I’ve ordered myself a wall print, even before the councillor’s office asked to use it in the ad.<\/p>\n

Here’s the original. (This is the leftover from my weekly Project 365 post, the one that I said needed a post of its own!)<\/p>\n

And speaking of Dickinson Days<\/a>, the party starts on Friday with a parade, a midway, and fireworks. Through the weekend, there’s all sorts of family fun to be had, including a kids’ fishing derby, a craft market, tours of Watson’s Mill and Dickinson House, live entertainment, and on Saturday afternoon Manotick Main Street is closed to traffic so the local merchants can step out and feature some of their best stuff. I’ve been looking forward to this all winter!<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a family-friendly celebration of summertime fun, Manotick is the place to be next weekend! (Please let the rain abate by then!!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
