Thanks, Tom. Truth be told, this is my favorite kind of photography - unfettered, unposed, unscripted, fly-on-the-wall. I will make a point to check in more often

As a note though.............in image #2 if Ethen pulls the tail on that there kitty he might just learn something about cats he isn't expecting.
Sam
Ha ha - yes, it's a delicate balance, isn't it? But he's had many hours of practice at home with Tom and Nutmeg, so there will be no surprises here.
Thanks, Sam :-)

I agree. Very nice set!

Thank you. I do a fair amount of family photography, predominantly lined up and posed, with mom and dad hovering nearby yelling out, say cheese. I live for opportunities to do this free-style, candid type of shooting; rare, in a way, unless you happen to know the children (as I did here - godforbid, you can't photograph random children playing in a park the way we once could), or unless specifically hired to do so (not as often as I'd like). But yeah - just set me free with a pack of kids - don't talk to me or to them - that's when I'm happiest.

Well, it really shows that you loved doing this shoot, candid portraits/scenes are the best. Nicely done!

I agree, photography is different with a long lens. Shooting with a short lens affords an intimacy, and connection with the subject, without a doubt. I often prefer the closeness that, say, a 50mm lens allows, but on the other hand, this "fly on the wall" style offers a candidness and unposed quality that is also fun and difficult to get with a shorter lens and closer presence. I grow very weary of photographing children who are trained to say cheese and put on a fake face whenever they see a camera nearby. Two different styles, I enjoy them both. Also, you can't beat the bokeh on the 70-200, imo. I sometimes shoot with a 20mm, but I don't care for the way the faces are distorted.
