I have always loved this picture that I took of Jemma in 2008. I was reading a fantastic book in the Photo Workshop series called Photographing Children. You read a chapter and it gives you an assignment. I was going for angles and light and captured Jemma swinging on the swing. I was laying on my back on the ground, but sitting halfway up so I could hold the camera. Talk about a massive abdominal crunch! I absolutely adore this picture of her. This was her first year of swinging on the "big girl swing". She would just sing and yell as she whizzed through the air. What a joy and privilege it has been to have this beautiful little creature in our life to show us the beauty and pleasure in the most simple things in life.
Have a wonderful week!
She looks like she's floating in the clouds. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great photo!!
ReplyDeletewow, this angle works so well for this shot. It makes it 100X more interesting to see no ground. The sky all around adds a dreamy and "free" feeling to the scene. Very nice.
