This was fun and the first time I found you/participated!
I do have a couple questions. Someone commented on my post saying my entry was ineligible because there was more than one image in my post. It states one entry for I Heart Faces… that’s the way I understood it, anyway. I have your button, the theme and the photo/description following. It is obvious which one is meant to be entered.
I was reading further and it states to upload the images to Flickr or your site. Can’t I use my OWN site? It really simplifies things if I keep things the way I normally do things.
I have followers that don’t like SO MANY updates messages. I combine as possible to honor their request. So is how I’ve done it acceptable?
I look forward to your reply. ;D Thanks!

I think that I may have put my homepage in my submission rather than my permalink. Here it is http://lilcindylouwho.wordpress.com/2010/08/10/shocked-and-appalled/
Sorry for the mix up-it’s my first contest.
I love this contest. These photos are great.
We spent the whole weekend at Kidzapalooza in Chicago and this picture just captured such pure joy and surprise on everyones’ faces. The 3 singers in Recess Monkey are Seattle elementary teachers and look like they have every bit as much fun on stage as the kids they’re “entertaining”.

I loved the idea for this challenge, I knew exactly which photo I wanted to use. While you only see half his face you can tell he is completely surprised. Thanks for the opportunity!
LOVE I heart Faces!!
What creative themes! This one was fun!

Tough one to find a photo. I prefer natural shots to posed so I had to think about what surprise meant vs excitement vs joy.Would it be jawdropping or merely the lifting of an eyebrow? I chose a small shock- the surprise of an icy cold wave licking at tiny toes!

Lots of great photos this week! I was so excited when I logged on this morning to see the theme was “surprise”…the photo I chose was the first one to come to mind.

I actually took this picture and thought it would make an awesome entry for i Heart Faces. Since I had never entered before I was SO excited to see that surprised was the theme for this week because my little girl looked surprised in this picture!

I definitely thought of catching one of my kids doing something they weren’t supposed to be doing! haha!
I blogged about my recent senior shoot of my cousin. I was telling her about my engagement and details….her face was priceless!
This is a picture of my then 3 year old who thought she was talking to Santa on the phone and could hardly believe her self. The only word she could squeak out at top volume was ‘S-s-s-anta?’ The eyes definitely have it.

I didn’t think I was going to have anything until I caught a shot of my son being rather surprised by a polar bear at the zoo yesterday. He doesn’t have that wide eyed look that so many of the entries have (and I wished I had!), but you can tell he was surprised.

I didn’t get my entry done until this morning. Can’t believe 100 people already entered. You guys are FAST! LOL! Thanks Angie for taking care of everything while I was on my cruise. Love the photo in today’s post.

Fun theme this week! Can’t wait to see more!
love this challenge! can’t wait to see all the entries!!
My kid loves to surprise people! She hides under blankets on the couch when she hears me or my husband come down the stairs and then shouts SURPRISE! She hides behind things and jumps into rooms. She definitely keeps us on our toes. I wanted to capture her in the act and thankfully while I had her at the park this weekend, she was in fine form jumping out from behind the trees. Luckily she did this a few times and so that is how I got my entry.
Ooops, sorry.. entered my name wrong with the first entry.. made a corrected one, please delete the first one.
