**I am so bugged. I started this post at 11:52am and have been trying to load this video all day. I don't know why it's not working. Aargh!
These are the 3 pictures I turned in to 12x12 enlargements at Costco. I made them black and white and then had to choose which part of the photo to include in the picture, since the enlargement is a square. I love how they turned out. (FYI: It was only $2.99 each for the enlargements!)
Cool train station we went to in order to go to Giverny.
Empty tables and chairs at Jardin de Luxumbourg.
**What do you think?
Do you like making enlargements
and framing photos?
Will you post video of yourself?**

Lovely photos! I enlarge a ton, we switch them up a lot around here. I'll bet those look great HUGE!
I hate pics of myself, video even more so.
But that video that Kristi posted on your b'day was super cool.
I love b&w enlargements. I'm glad you posted your choices as I was curious to see which ones you narrowed it down to.
Wow, what a great pictures :)
I love those shots! What a neat thing to capture. I'd join you in a video post if I had the capabilities.
Love that first picture especially!
I just got some $2.99 enlargements from Costco myself, great deal huh? A photographer friend actually took some nice photo's of the Denver Temple (our local Temple) for me so we could offer some nice pictures for an inexpensive price at Enrichment Super Saturday. She has a nice camera (probably like yours) so she can do that, I even got a 16x20 one blown up at Costco and it was just $9.99 plus shipping.
I can't tell you how wonderful it is to have a nice picture of the Temple that is not too teency in my home!!
And I didn't see any video?
I too love enlargements and always have them made at Sam's. I truly love your photos. I love the lines they all share!! Great job! I don't have any video of myself unless you count just before giving birth and really no one wants to see that-not even me! (ps I love reading your blog)
**What do you think? very cool!
Do you like making enlargements
and framing photos? oh ya! sams club is the best!
Will you post video of yourself?**sure im trying to figure out how to video myself?!?!
I will not be posting a video of myself.
I would like to frame photos but haven't for sometime. A project I need to get started on.
Yes, beautiful photos. How did you choose which ones after ALL of those you took? I am assuming they had some sort of special meaning?
As far as posting videos I have decided to stick with videoegg. Blogger just takes incredibly too long. I am not sure I would post a self video, but maybe I really HATE my voice. :)
I love your photos. Once again, I wish I lived near a Costco because enlarging to a 12x12 would be so cool. Maybe I should just do it at the one an hour and a half away.
Can't wait to see the video. I am so frightened by my own voice on video. I'm usually unbelieving that it's me! How's that for denial.
These photos are very artistic, how did you end up arranging them? We've actually only enlarged one photo, that of the girls sitting in a field of orange poppies. It hangs in our orange kitchen. Others I've enlarged on our computer and printed them - but it's just not the same. Thanks for the inspiration!
Great photos. I just wish I could take a photo worthy of enlarging.
Jill, you have to compress the video for sharing. I know how to do it on a Mac but not a PC. Google it?
wow very parisien....i love the last one and the first one...there is some air of melancoly...how do you spell it...melancolia...there...in the jardin one...well can't wait to see it finished. I love fotos...I just have to get my organization and then start printing the ones I really like from iphoto...but I have now 19000 can you believe that...of course there are many that are doubled...but I cannot fathom that many.....I will be erasing many that are not worthy of my choices. Now this year, I have been much better at deleting them before I download them.
Those pictures are so great- I can't wait to see the finished look on your wall!
I like to make enlargements but haven't in a long time. I have been collecting frames for a while for a project but haven't decided on pictures to put in them. But once I do, I will have some major framing to do.
I have been wondering about the video thing. We have a camera, I just need to take the time to figure out the software and compress stuff and then play around with it. I have no problem with a video of me, I just don't know what it would be of...
We just did some enlargements at costco and it is so easy and cheap. I love the ones you chose.
As for the video, I really hate my voice!!!! But I decided if I ever got together with another fellow blogger I would do a short video with her too!
i bet the enlargements are gorgeous!
I LOVE them!! I think all three are quintessentially Parisian. Good choice.
I may load some videos, but probably not of me.:) (I'm not that brave.)
I think this is a great idea! I need to start doing this with some of my Europe photos from last year. I've got some really cool pictures from the inside of Paddington Station in London.
I love the photos!
I don't really want to put a video of myself up there. We'll see...
Thanks for commenting on my blog this week. It was fun to hear from you.
love the pictures. I want to do more enlargements.. I just saw an idea to enlarge photos of your kids.. and modge podge them on a canvas to hang in their rooms... I loved it!
I couldn't get the blogger video to work either. I spent all night trying to upload Ry's sprinkler park one on there and ended up using you tube instead. I don't know what's wrong with it, or me.
Great pictures. I think the most simple ones are usually the most beautiful.
I love Paris so I would have loved any pictures but those are awesome!
I love Paris so I would have loved any pictures but those are awesome!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE black and white photos and they are even better when you took them yourself- I have decided an enlarged B&W of a trip is the best souvenir. I have 3 of our last trip to Italy hanging in our dinning room and love them.
Love your choice for enlargements. I love enlarging photos and turning them black and white as well.
Video of myself - hmmm, I don't know if I can be that techno savy to figure that out. I have a funny of my Chandler that I want to post!
I LOVE your framed pictures!! Especially the train station one, that is fabulous!
Funny about the video...I would LOVE to see it!
Those pictures are absolutely awesome! Like something you would buy in the store. No, I won't put a video of me on my blog, mainly because I don't know how.
Argh!! I still haven't been able to successfully load a video and I've tried 32 times.
I love the pics- I totally remember the tables at Luxembourg and very similar photos I took there nigh 11 years ago, visiting Shell the first time they went!
This post hates me, I've tried to comment twice with no success. Hopefully this time!!
I love your photos! And I'm again coveting cities with a Costco! That is seriously cheap for that big of an enlargement. Maybe I'll try the one 1.5 hrs away.
If there was some good, funny video of me I might consider posting it. But now I'm a tired, not funny (huge) pregnant woman!!
I love your pics. They really capture the feeling of quintessential France. I love making enlargements. But am running out of wall space.
love the choices. you have such a great eye. (and clear pics!!)
video-- hmmm. no. not until we replace our vid camera anyway. and i see that i am not alone in hating my voice, reading the comments left by others...
you need to put a mr. linky on this post to see everyone that makes a video.
Now the video suspense. I hope you get it to load. I loved seeing and hearing your voice when you did your first one. Maybe we should hint at a video spt to Lelly.
You picked great prints to be framed.
I can just imagine those pictures blown up huge. I'm sure they will look amazing in your room!
I'm having trouble with video lately -- I can't get it to upload from my camera to my computer. I have the cutest video of PQ singing "Twinkle Twinkle" and it is trapped on my camera -- makes me a little crazy!
Great photos. I'm sure it was difficult to choose just three to enlarge. I love turning pictures into black and white and enlarging them. I have a family photo in a 10 x 10 opening in a black frame but I haven't taken a newer picture that fits well in it. Maryn isn't even in the picture(unless you count her in my tummy just a few weeks along) and she is 3!!!
I'm not sure if I will video myself or not. I'm self conscience about my southern twang and my expanding tummy. I can't wait to see yours. Hopefully it works soon.
the photos look beautiful in the frames. Can't wait to see what they look like on your wall.
