The Winning Shot

October 3, 2007

in more than meets the eye

So many of you sent me lovely photos for the bizarro photography contest we had last week that it was impossible for me to choose a winner so I pawned it off on my 3 year old brought in Hailey as a guest judge, which only makes sense because her artwork is the prize. 

And the winner is…

Happy Katie’s family portrait!

Says Katie: “We are perfectly emulating the newborn Ella’s pursed lip / googly wide-eyed look that we laughed at non-stop for about 3 months of her early life (yes, we realize her psychiatrist bills will be enormous)”

Hailey agreed.  “That baby is funny!  She’s making a fishy lips face.  See my fishy lips, baby!”

And then she did fishy lips.  And then I did fishy lips.  Hell, you’re probably doing fishy lips right now.  And only a great photo can inspire laughter and smiles and international fishy lips.

So send me your address, Katie.  This art piece is yours:

Fishy lips forever,

PS.  Is it just me or is the font all screwed up in this post?  Weird.  I blame the Canadians.

I love it! Great choice, Hailey!

Is that an abstract painting, or is it supposed to be of something specific? It looks like a penis flying through outer space to me.

Great picture.

I was going to try to do this, but corralling 3 cats and a busy husband proved very difficult.

Cool! ;-)

-R- It could be flying penis but actually I think it’s an upside-down elephant being sucked into a black hole.

I’m on to you, Jeff.

Hailey is a great judge! Congrats to Katie! I love that photo.

I don’t know if it’s just my whacky imagination, but I see a cabbage rose next to penis/testicles, with little ducks following behind…an early inductee to the TS, perhaps? hehe Anyway, all are cute pics. :)

Fishy Lips forever!
