Veronica: year one slideshow

Veronica turns two years old next week!  I finally got around to putting together a slideshow of photos from her first year. So, yes, I'm about a year behind schedule on that.

This is definitely a no-frills piece of work -- simply photos strung together in chronological order and set to possibly sappy yet hopefully still tenderly appropriate music.

The difficulty of this project was in selecting the photos. In order to keep the numbers down I had to add some constraints to the process. For instance, with a couple exceptions, I didn't include photos containing anyone other than V. I even made a last minute decision to leave grandparents (sorry!) and myself on the cutting room floor. The symmetry of the bookends with momma and a cupcake, however, was too perfect to leave out. There is also, obviously, an emphasis on close-ups so that you can see the details of V's face change over the course of the year. This meant excluding some of my favorite wider shots that just didn't contain enough V.

I'm quite pleased to have this memento and am looking forward to starting the next one as soon as next week!
