Christmas Candy
Posted By: Sailor, 12-27-2007, 04:13 PM

Here's a Christmas morning shot of my Granddaughter, who has discovered the joy of a candy cane. She's an active and precocious three-year-old who rarely pauses long enough to photograph; this time I got lucky. The picture was shot with my FA 35/2 and bounce flash.

Hey Jer, you are getting this candid photo technique down pretty good. Great shot and excellent detail w/o any harsh shadows. You can just tell that those fingers are nice and sticky! And I also like the red "lipstick"

Thanks, Salty and Pat. I think she's a doll, but of course my objectivity may be skewed a bit!

Nice shot Jer - no your objectivity is fine - that is a precious moment captured of a precious little girl - a Christmas treasure for sure.

Please allow me to add my kudos! That is a super shot. I have seen several of yours and they are all well done. I particularly like the lighting. That is a level I am trying to get to.

Very nice picture of a good looking girl. Keep on taking photos, they grow up before you know it.

Take care, Heinrich

Thanks Dave, Bruce, Tom and Heinrich for the additional kind comments. We're going to be blessed with a couple of sunny, warm days allowing us to spend a night or two on our boat - so I'll be able to turn my lens on another subject.
