I did get a few good photos of the bride (my niece) and groom at the wedding Friday, July 18th. I was worried that I didn't get anything decent for them since it was a Catholic wedding and all the sitting, standing, sitting, standing was very hard on my already painful back. I don't know why this is my favorite - maybe because she looks so happy. They are going to have a good life and she's picked a good man.
And after some minor manipulations in Picasa (a free Google photo program) of the best ones, I came up with over 30 photos! Much better than I expected and that should be enough to put into a nice album for them.
Now today is the first day I am off all meds for my back. And I walked for 15 minutes yesterday evening with no bad results. Truly on the mend!!! I may just go down to my art room and paint for a while - timing myself in 1/2 hour increments so I don't get carried away. If I get anything to share, I will do that later today...
I so appreciate all the positive comments and concerns about my back and the problem I had - when you make friends like this over the internet, you know it's a good thing when used in the right way :)

glad your back is feeling better Rhonda! nice wedding photos.
Glad to see you are on the mend. Please, don't overdo.
I'm glad your back is doing so much better, Rhonda. Great shot! Don't you find it nerve-wracking when you've taken some photos for someone at a wedding, wondering if they've 'turned out'? Thank goodness for digitals - instant relief or re-do.
Ummm, don't most religions have stand, sit, stand, sit thingies at their weddings? LOL.
Did you get to paint?
Thanks, Dawn, Vicki and Deb :)
Deb, the only other weddings I've been at are my own (2 of those - ha ha) and family in Protestant ceremonies. There is no sitting, standing, sitting, standing for a service before the wedding like there was in this one - although that may have been unique to this couple, don't know. I try to avoid weddings as much as possible so I don't have to dress up!
I'm glad to hear that your back is feeling better, Rhonda. Go easy!
Thanks, Michelle. I have to keep telling myself this - take it slow, go easy, don't overdo - and Jerry tells me, too.
