I’ve been following your blog for a little while and I’ve nominated you for the LIebster award. You can play along or not – up to you!

This is such a wonderful blog and I am so happy that I came across it tonight!
and thanks for inspiring my granddaughter and I to do the same
hi laura, thank you, that’s so nice to hear. good luck with your project. i hope you get as much enjoyment out of it as we do.
this is certainly a great theme.. all the very best.
SINCERE GREETINGS FROM INDIA !
Cool! Made me think fondly of my dad. Nice pics from the both of you! Your personalities really come through in the juxtaposition of images…What’s your day job that you hate? Have you considered something in the field of graphic arts?
I just adore this idea! Congrats to you both for keeping up with this. I would love to start something similar with my own daughter who lives far away from me now. I look forward to following your weekly posts going forward!
So this got pushed before me & I love the idea. My Daughter & I live 300 miles apart, I thought this would be a great idea too. She & I have decide to start a 6 month project and see where it leads us. Here’s our site for now : http://twoviewsdifferently.wordpress.com
that’s so nice to hear. we will definitely be looking at your site – good luck with it.
you guys are an inspiration… wow
Great work. Awesome blog. Touching concept. Stunning images and great stories. You’re building an exceptional amount of the most valuable thing a person can own – shared memories. Consider me a follower.
Also visited as a result of the WordPress email… What a great concept and execution! Congratulations! There is much to like about what you are doing… on so many levels! Keep it going!
What a special project and inspiring photography!
Very good idea! Have a great day!
This is such a wonderful idea! Very original!
I just found your blog and it came to me in the perfect time. I moved to Australia a couple of years ago and my dad is still in Colombia. I can’t describe how much I miss him but we talk to each other almost everyday. Nevertheless I’ve been trying to find a way in which we can share some kind of activity in the distance and your idea is just perfect! I’ll show him this blog and hopefully he’ll like us to do something similar. Thank you!!!!!!!
WordPress just featured you in an email about collaborating with others on a blog. I’m so glad I visited…your photos are fun…well, just the few I’ve seen so far. How very sweet the two of you are together and I can feel the love…
Superbe tenue :p
I nominated just me & my dad to receive the Kreativ Blogger Award! There’s no obligation for you to accept or give the award to anyone else. I enjoy your posts and wanted to thank you for sharing. Please check out the nomination page below to get the award and see who else I nominated. Rules for nominating your favorite blogs are there as well :D
Have a great day!
thank you so much
I think you’re blog is incredibly inspiring and speaks to the close relationship that you share with each other. We’re given one Mom and one Dad in this earthly journey. It’s wonderful that you’re creating such incredible memories together. I look forward to following your blog and beautiful photos.
On a side note, I got a chuckle out of your post. My dad is Bill Connolly! :-)

nice! I lost me dad this year. Cherish him.
Awesome blog! Love what you got going on
Thanks for sharing the wonderful stories and pictures. This is an amazing project!
Melissa
Very nice photography and idea! What camera do you use?
Ellen
I love this idea! I wish I had a better relationship with my dad. My sister and I have a blog together. It’s not photography but writing together and it’s been a good experience for us. Very enjoyable. Many blessings!
What a wonderful blog! It makes me miss my Dad very much, and I wish that we had done something like this. Thank you for bringing a smile to my face and, more importantly, to my heart.
I love this project! The photos and your personalities; a wonderful shared activity and way to express your lovely relationship.
Thank you…
this is an awesome project. Thank you for sharing! We have a somewhat similar one, and we enjoy following yours.
How fun – we are a family full of photographers – what a good connecting idea!
Great project :) And fantastic shots. I look forward to more!
Firstly, many congratulations on being Freshly Pressed. Secondly, can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed looking through your blog. I’ve kind of been studying blogs over the last few months, and I love the way you say so much with just a few words and pictures, instead of blabbing on about nothing like so many! Your blog is inspiring and warming. As someone who, at 64, can say that she had always had a very strained relationship with her father, all I can say is make the very most of it (although you don’t seem to need anyone to tell you that), and long may it continue. Wonderful project.
How wonderful. The blogs I like best are ones that can inspire me without taking up much of my time –like this!
Hi, I found your blog on the homepage of wordpress, and I’m glad I clicked on the link, because your blog is very heartwarming. I only look on some of the photos, and read this page, but I can tell the strong loving bond between you and your dad, which is wonderful and beautiful.
I really love the concept that you and your dad talk and share to each other through photos. I love how you and your dad say about one another, too.
Thank you, for letting me see something such loving and beautiful.
Wish you and your dad and all your love ones happy.
Hi Dad!
Never thought I’d get on a plane but Uncle Sam thought otherwise….
The comments that you make of each other are so cute! I can truly tell that you love each other, a lot!
So coming back! Love the concept – love the pics (missing my dad)
What an amazing idea. I am so impressed, and so happy to see a father and daughter enjoy their time together so much. It’s inspiring, and breaks my heart at the same time! I can’t wait to see what else you come up with :)
I love this project. SImple and beautiful. Keep them coming.
Very sweet – you look like that actress Sissie Spacek.
I too have a wonderful dad…I love your story. I love this bond you have formed by a shared interest. I can relate. Thank you for this project. It is lovely.
your project touched my heart :) both your photos….stunning :)
What a great project idea!
Also: my favorite foods are pizza and potatoes, too (on their own or together).
Your blog makes me happy and sentimental at the same time. I love this, both the idea and the actual photos, this is a such a wonderful project.
this is such a beautiful idea, as are your photos each beautiful. Love it here, shall come by often…
