Here is my little monkey. Don't ask me how I managed to get the focus at this ss, but it was a quick safety shot before I set up the exposure. Just as well as she didn't keep still after that and I didn't get any more! I think I need to find some willing seniors to practice on lol

What a cute little monkey you have. Beautiful photographs. Love the B&W. Did you do the conversion in LR, or with your previous method. Thanks for sharing.

She's gorgeous! I wish I could've taken shots like that when my daughter was two. Heck, she's a teenager now & I still can't take photos like that!
TFS, you give me something to aspire to.

Thanks all. Yes she sure does keep me on my toes. She lives up to the reputation of the terrible twos - but she is a little angel too

Lisa that is really sweet of you thank you. I have just put a call out for a teenager so I can practice properly I hope she says yes, I am quite excited about photographing a willing model

My 'senior' has said yes - whoopie. I am really looking forward to it. Someone who will stay where they are put, not wriggle and jiggle, whine or winge! How exciting.
