There's many reasons why I enjoy dating Tim as a person, but there's one main reason I LOVE dating a photographer. You see, Molly (my dog of 13 years) had to be put down recently. I look around the house and through our computer files to find pictures of her everywhere. Yes, there's pictures that I took of her, but they really don't compare. One simple truth is that Tim's camera has more mega pixels than mine, but he also just takes better photos. Having such vivid images of her is a huge comfort of me. Not just her sitting there, and he took the shot. He somehow managed to capture images where her personality simply jumps out at me. She's alive in his pictures, and I don't know how he did it. I have MILLIONS of photos I took of her before I even met Tim, but bottom line: it's not even close.
So, with surgery just 7 days away I'm finding a lot of comfort in this picture. That's our dog Bear who we were worried was going to be real trouble for me after my first surgery. That picture is the day of or the day after I got home from the hospital. He was soo gentle and loving. He's Tim's nurse assistant. The picture reminds me that I will be well taken care of and loved. Which, makes it a little less scary.
