Sepia Scenes: Yummy Birthday Cake


I GOT CAKE!
Grandbaby Lily
December 29, 2008
Happy 1st Birthday
The Original Photo

(Yes, we had a wonderful time!)

I changed the color image to sepia and added a rough film grain to make the photo look older.

Happy New Year Everyone!

The first birthday is always so much fun for everybody. Is that a 2nd generation high chair? It looks like the one I had with my children, my grandson is now using it. Like the change to sepia, it really does look old.

I like sepia pictures but this time I prefered the colored one. That is a cute kid.

Leora said...

She is so cute, in sepia, pink or blue! And she shares my father's birthday, only 78 years apart. Happy Birthday, little Lily!

I love first cake photos! This is a sweet and beautiful mess!

My wish for you in 2009, is that you have twice as many joys and blessings as 2008 held, and only half the sorrows.

A timeless image made even more timeless in sepia. Terrific. Happy Birthday little sweetie.

Raven said...

She's so cute... and she's grown so since the last photos you posted. Nothing like the first birthday cake bath to bring a smile to the heart.

Happy birthday and anniversary to you too. Is that right? I'm too lazy to go back and double check but I think there were lots of birthdays and other good things.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

She's adorable! Love that cake smush. The sepia shot really does look like it was taken years ago, but the color one is all right now.

Congratulations on Lily's first birthday.

How appropriate ... a first birthday baby to celebrate the arrival of the New Year! What a classic photo you have created with the sepia!

Happy New Year!

OHHHHH! I think Grandma enjoyed herself! I love that photo in sepia--somehow or other it makes Lily be centerstage.

Both pictures were great. What a beautiful Grandbaby you have.
Great that you were able to share it with her. Looks like she enjoyed the cake.
Happy New Year.

Yup. Straight form high chair to bathtub. That's how I always did it. After the pictures of course.
