Here ya go Diva,

Some of what I have been up to. :D

1) Find the gummy worms in a bowl of flour without using your hands!

2) Resting after playing hard.

    All 'em - FABULOUS. I (of course) love #2, but each and every one is terrific.

    As (minor) nits:

    #3: the juxtaposition between her backside and the rock is a little unfortunate, although I don't expect anybody but a photographer would even notice it without it being mentioned.....

    #4 Light and pose are great, but the background isn't so appealing. Worth cropping in a bit (or is there some significance to the bg that the casual viewer wont' recognize)? Or possibly darkening the background like crazy for some more drama? Just thoughts.

    And yes, post more - love your work (always have)!

    Thanks! I agree about the rock...that is a learning point. If I would have moved just a foot to my left the problem would have been solved.

    #4 my idea was elegant with an "industrial" feel. Background was deliberate.

    They're all great, but #3 would be my favorite.

    Thanks everyone. Maddy in #2 was soooooo shy at first but by the end of our 5 day trip she was a little ham in her own way...never really posing but just stopping now and then so I could get a snap. Here are a few more.

    The first two are the shots I want of my kids. Definitely not classical poses but what great character shots and the kind you want to view many years later and just plain old smile.

    Really like #4 stone and all. Again 2b is just plain old "she is my kid".
