Day 176 - Twins of Australia

We organised a photo shoot with Helga Dalla who is a photographer from the Sunshine Coast who has started a series of books about twins called Twins of Australia (see the Twins of Australia website here).

We have a little questionnaire to fill out and it is proving to be quite difficult to put my thoughts into words. These will be published words after all.

If you are interested in taking part, just go to the website and register your interest. I thoroughly enjoyed our photo shoot with Helga. It could be something we consider again.

Day 24 - Who Am I?

Who am I?

My post today is quite simple. The photo is probably not the best, but it serves its purpose.

Ever since the girls were born people have always asked "Who is who?" "How do you tell them apart?" "They are obviously identical? Are you sure?"

The girls are fraternal twins, they have different blood types, so definately not identical. As they are growing up and getting bigger, the similarities are becoming more common. When they were little they were so easy to tell apart because Olivia was always that fraction smaller and had darker skin than Ava. But once you get to know the girls and you see them regularly, you know who is who.

I took this photo of one of the girls purely by chance today. When I asked Shane who he thought it was, he even got it wrong. Amazing!

So, who do you think it is? I'll be interested to see your responses.
