Preparations....

VISA pictures... no problem!


Let's just make our own, good camera... white background... internet program to help you line everything up... EASY!

Here it goes...

Anjun, we're going to take your picture, go stand by the wall....

ok, honey - no smiling

(which just made him smile more... of course)

ok, settled down, can you put your hand down honey..


and look at the camera...

(oh, right, the camera, let me get as close to it as possible)



nonono....then we start laughing

And so does he....


hysterically.....ok honey, can you close your mouth?

Lovely.  (he DID close his mouth... I'll give him that)




And on the last one, out of how many, we got it:

Then Marlos turn... oh boy.

Ok, let's try it with me holding him, white background...
good,


Hold him strait....

look at the camera Marlo..

Marlo...

Marlo.......

No dice.

Try laying him down..... not happy

Try again later, naked but who cares he's a baby!

He's in a good mood...although you can't tell by the first shot.

eyes open...please

um... ok, better, let's see if that works.

And then us too.. the flash is bright....

I don't recommend speaking while they're taking the pic..

OR laughing...

And my best, this is my 'let me into your country!' pic.

I think they'll like it.






And what did we end up doing?  Just going to a bloody shop and having them do it on the spot.  Despite the internet program to help, and printing your own at the store didn't have the exact dimensions.... and no one likes to send everything in for a visa and then your picture be off by a centimeter to delay the whole thing.


So, we let someone else do it.

But it was fun to try on our own.  Adventures and preparations for India.  Only 3 weeks!  oh my.
