Default Look here!

Okay, so I'm really bad with titles and couldn't think of anything better!?! LOL

I shared mostly images of my youngest yesterday so thought I would share some that I took of my oldest daughter over the last couple of days. It's such a good thing that this forum only allows 4 images per post because you guys would be so sick of my kids if they didn't..haha

This is the look I get when I ask if I can take pictures of her. The only thing that works is a cash bribe....ughhh She's such a mess! lol

I don't think you could get sick of looking at your little angels except that in the last one she let the halo slip. Whoops! These are all such beautiful captures. Great use of softer focus and here eyes look so sparkling. I tried to do the first one with the dandelions last week with one of my grandaughters but mine never came out right. Yours is excellent. Thank you for showing your lovely captures of your beautiful daughter.

Jake, that halo slips more than it stays in place! lol
I have tried the flying dandelion shot soooo many times and never really loved the results until now. I found that the trick is a faster ss and also if you use more than one dandelion (like a handful) you have a better chance at catching them!

Love the first picture and have been waiting to see a set of dandelion parachutes this year. Second and third, gorgeous model and fantastic presentation. Final picture, everyones entitled to look a little grumpy now and again. Lovely selection Ruthie, quality pictures as always.

Wow, love everything about the first, the 3 & 4th are fantastic, but I couldn't get over #2 .. the lighting is so nice and peaceful, the b&w only adds by allowing features to pop out, and all that accentuates how beautiful your daughter is . thx for sharing this set
