Superhero Photo Challenge: spell it out

070508_600.jpg

A friend stayed at our house a few weekends ago and left this sweet message on our fridge when we returned. I was impressed since we have lost half the magnetic alphabet to the pantry, toy bins, garbage can and anywhere else my toddler sees fit.

This week's challenge is to send a little message to the world. Photograph someone with a handmade sign, make some chalk graffiti on your sidewalk, paint your belly with a Sharpie. Whatever inspires you!

photographically speaking, it's not top notch, but it captures my daughter's message to the world!

This challenge naturally reminded me of a photo I took at a friend's wedding last month.

A message to the bride and groom ...
