I’m doing collages all the time, but yesterday, a very dear friend, also a blogger friend, HPY, tagged me and some others for a special collage challenge, so I decided to make a small extra post with just one collage.
This is my granddaughter Paloma (six now); photos from last week when we shared something to drink at a café. She was obviously amused!
This could also serve as a special tribute to Paloma’s dad, who is celebrating his birthday today!

I had another very nice surprise yesterday! "SparklingMirror", actually David, a ceramicist, living in Rochester NY, made a post referring to my blog. It's so flattering that I almost blushed! I will revert further to "SparklingMirror" in the near future, as I expect a contribution to next month's mid-month theme, Subways.
(I posted “normally” yesterday and will do so again tomorrow.)

Many thanks for sharing such an amazing happy moment!
Kind Regards

I absolutely love your collages and, as usual, this one captures the personality of your subject beautifully.
Also, it was my pleasure (and duty) to sign a tribute... you obviously put lots of time and energy into this, which is a valuable gift to your followers.
Thank you,
David
Happy birthday to 'The Man'
Ever since Paloma's life began
Tell her when she has been bad :-)
It's hard, but that's being a dad :-)
superbe montage, qui donne envie de rire avec elle ;o)) j'adore cette joie de vivre
Tu as saisi toute la fraîcheur de Paloma !
Un puzzle d'éclats de rire, ça fait plaisir à recevoir.
I too love ALL your collages, but this one is so sweet.
She is so cute and it really shows what a wonderful time you two had together.
Magnifique Peter ! Elle respire la joie de vivre Paloma. Quand on a six c'est amusant de boire un verre à la terrasse d'un café avec Papy Peter!!!
J'ai oublié l'autre suj.
Ton blog sur Paris respire l'amour que tu as pour cette ville et c'est normal que l'on en parle sur d'autre blogs. Félicitations mais c'est amplement mérité.
You have such a beautiful grandchild....and such fabulous shots of her smiling face.
Your blog is very colorful. I like it.
I won't reiterate with the song you heard some days ago, but I nevertheless wish a happy birthday to P. (Not Paloma, who's "horribly" cute in seven versions on your collage.)
And thanks for your participation. I appreciate! I really do.
Have a nice Thursday. Bis morgen!
oh you have captured her best of moods Peter. i remember a Geroge Baker selection song 'una Paloma Blanca'
Its a delightful collage Peter. Your grand daughter is simply beautiful.
heureusement que les petits enfants rient! Les adultes devraient en prendre de la graine. Comment s'appelle le nounours? :-)
Oh Paloma !!! You know I have special mention of her always.
You have captured beautiful Paloma in her best moods.... shy, embarrassing,laughing, happy, amusing and all.
Peter, pls ask her whether she can fly like me ? :-)
Very pretty Paloma and you looks a very proud grandfather, no wonder!
Superb! What fun, what joy she is having. You've really captured her happiness - what a record for her one day. And Happy Birthday to Paloma's Papa today.
Many congrats, Peter, on the wonderful tribute to your blog. So very well deserved - and more. I love the way Sparkling Mirror has showed us all the parts of your blog he loves so much.
Elle est ravissante! Et comme elle t'aime et se sent bien en ta compagnie, on le devine à travers ces photos, sa confiance et son naturel...Ce collage est un très joli cadeau pour son papa. Que de gâteaux d'anniversaire chez vous ces derniers jours!
(j'aimerais bien savoir comment tu réalises ces collages où les photos se "fondent" les unes dans les autres, moi aussi j'en dois un à notre chère Hélène ;-)
Amour au naturel!
She's adorable. Hope this one is going on her wall at home.
Wonderful photos of an adorable subject. Happy Birthday to your son. Nice that you have birthdays so close. Do you celebrate together? :=]
Paloma looks so happy!
Happy birthday to her dad!
Belle comme une colombe... un prénom qui lui va a ravir.
Félicitations pour cette magnifique présentation tout en joie de vivre !
Quoi de mieux qu'un sourire d'enfant... Superbe collage de ta petite fille :0)
Je suppose que c'était pour ton anniversiare Peter ?
Alors bon anniversaire Peter et à bientôt à Paris (après ton escapade à Menton).
Amicalement.
Je souhaite aussi un bon anniversaire à Paloma, mais tu as d'autres voeux d'anniversaire à venir prendre sur mon blog, ils t'attendent.
