Beaches & Beavers ACTION!

Good morning, friends! Made it through Monday (which was a feat) - now let's focus on getting through today. Hopefully these shots will help get your day started right :)

High tide ACTION!

How about this great shot from Hill, taken in Long Island, New York - doesn't it look like she's being pulled along by some invisible string? Too cool!

Glad I don't live there ACTION!

And this shot from Tiffani certainly takes the cake! Beaver, Utah - really?! As she so perfectly asks, "Who are the people who name these places?" :)

Monday Blues ACTION!

As much as I willed it NOT to be so, Monday managed to show up anyway. So much for the power of denial! Oh well, so I'm stuck in a blue mood...better bring on some blue (and beautiful) action to snap me out of it!

St. Barts ACTION!

Check out this shot from Wiissa, taken on France's Saint Barthélemy island. Not only would I LOVE to be on that beach right now, but I wouldn't complain if I was as fit as that jumper, either ;)

Paper Airplane ACTION!

And I also love this shot from Pamela, taken in Cancun, Mexico. Such a cool perspective, like he's going to float into the clouds...

Setting sun ACTION!

We'll wrap it up with this gorgeous shot from Jim, taken on Samara beach in Costa Rica. What a perfect way to end a day!

Alrighty peeps - back to the grind we go. Hope your Monday is a good one!

Winter Weekend ACTION!

Waking up to snow this morning, as are many peeps all over the US. Gotta love Winter, right? Wrong! But I'll pretend...because while I may be longing for warm weather & sunshine, I can't deny the fact that the cold white stuff makes for some fun action :)

Beatrixpark ACTION!

Take Martyn, for example - his shot, taken in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, demonstrates just how much fun Winter (and wireless remotes) can be!

Snowball ACTION!

Or how about this shot from Lindsey, taken in Maidenhead, United Kingdom. The snow made for hours of entertainment for her daughter AND provided her an excuse to play with her Canon 40D!

Gotcha ACTION!

Last, but certainly not least, we have another great shot from Rick, who is quickly working his way up the ladder of jump shot royalty. The cold obviously didn't stop him from snagging this shot in Provo, Utah!

Saturday's Silhouette ACTION!

Oh, happy day! I've woken up a new woman, after having slept in until 7:57 - woot! All we need now is some fabulous action (and a cup of coffee ;) to really get this day started right :)

Good Morning, Sun ACTION!

Stuart is back, with some great shots from Scotland. His sons are jumping the sun in the first shot & pals Percy, Goldilocks and Halfdan take to air on East Haven beach near Carnoustie in Angus in the second.

Goodnight, Sun ACTION!

And Ben is also back with some killer shots in California - first with Star in Point Reyes & then with Star in Death Valley.

Wishing everyone has a wonderful first day of this long awaited weekend. I've been challenged to get out there and take some new action shots of my own, so you know what's number 1 on my agenda - hopes it's on today's "to do" list for you, too :)

Longest Week Ever ACTION!

I gotta say - I'd almost lost faith that we'd ever make it to Friday...but we DID! And, I don't know about you, but I can think of not a better reason to jump our lil' hearts out :)

Master shadow ACTION!

Check out this great shot from Tuukka-Elmeri, taken on the grounds of a primary school in Seinäjoki, Finland. I so dig the creepy-cool shadow on the wall!

Second semester ACTION!

And how fun is this shot from Kim, taken in Bucks County, Pennsylvania?! Pretty damn fun (and cute, and happy) if you ask me!

Have a wonderful day, peeps. Lord knows we've earned it :)

Today's Tardy ACTION!

Holy crappy day folks! Overslept (again!), got to work & there was no Internet (bad!), got pulled into yet another project that isn't mine (annoying!)...when will it end?!

Hopefully the last half of the day will be a bit more cooperative - and we'll start the good vibes with some better late than never action :)

Group think ACTION!

Oh, how I love a good group shot & this one from Denvie, taken in Baguio City, Philippines doesn't disappoint!

Suspended ACTION!

Nor does this footie shot from Megan, taken in Seoul, South Korea. Shot during the Patti Smith set at the Jisan Valley Rock Festival, Megan has a great eye for some random concert action!

Sorry again for the late post peeps. Fingers crossed I'm in for calmer waters tomorrow ;)

Wonderful Wednesday ACTION!

Overslept (too much Lost & catching up with old friends last night), which means I'm running late, which means I've only got time for a quick shot:

Gypsy gymnast ACTION!

Check out this impressive shot from Alyssa, taken in Richmond Hill in Ontario, Canada. This girl has some mad splits skills - makes me a bit jealous since I can't even touch my toes ;)

Hump day! Half way through the week - hang in there peeps!

Lost Tuesday ACTION!

Wow. I think it's fair to say that Monday sucked. BUT...Tuesday is going to be better, if only for one simple, long awaited reason. LOST! Yup - Lost is back, and it is the sole reason I'm up and at 'em.

I wish I had a Lost action shot, but alas, I do not. Oh well - action is action, so let's get to it!

Life on the lake ACTION!

So we're pulling a couple shots from my trip home over the holidays for today's post. The first is of my trusty dusty action lovin' sis at my Ma's neighbors house on Belews Lake in Stokesdale, North Carolina. And how cute is this squirrel, who is being rehabilitated by the neighbor? Animals love action to, ya know :)

Fantastic February ACTION!

The passing of one month means the welcoming of another - hello, February! I look forward to the action you will bring our way :)

Lil' Château ACTION!

Tell me this shot from V doesn't start your day off right. Taken in Versailles, France, it's a jump that leaves us with a smile :)

It's a sign ACTION!

Next up, this shot from Christopher, taken in Dallas, Texas. Who knew those annoying spam signs could make for such a great action prop? Nice find!

Leap frog ACTION!

Last, but not least, this shot from Igy, taken atop Broga Hill in Selangor, Malaysia. What do you want to bet he was the leap frog champion back in the day? ;)

I could lie and say that I am ready for today, but truth be told, I'd rather just go back to bed and pretend it's not Monday. Hope ya'll are in a bit better spirits, and that you have what will become a marvelous day!
