Default My 1000th Post !!

Phew, I had to make myself stop posting earlier so I didn't miss it I wanted to do something really "great" for this one. But the more I tried to take a great shot, the more elusive they became today. Finally I asked my daughter to please let me shoot her. She said fine you have 5 minutes and I won't smile. Sigh, gotta love teenagers. Anyway, this is what I came up with.... (no she would not move that piece of hair out of her face either)

Congratulations on 1000. This is a wonderful shot. And I like the hair as it is. It shows attitude and naturalness. (if thats a word).
By the way this is my 100 post.

I think it's a great shot! Isn't it amazing how difficult it can be to find a willing subject. I'm always getting the book over the face treatment.

I really like the lighting in this shot. And I like the fact that you can only see one eye - it adds interest.

Congrats on the 1000th post!

This child used to love to pose for me. She always has her cell phone held out in front of herself taking those horrid pics that are distorted. I ask her to sit for me and she would rather have her fingers cut off. Sigh ......

Don't you just love teenagers! My brother once gave me this piece of advice: When they get to be 16, just shoot them. I didn't, and the jury is still out on whether that was a wise decision! That's a really nice image and you've captured that "teen attitude" well. I'd call it a worthy 1000th post. congrats!

Congratulations 1000th.
Nice Shot, Kids have such honest expressions.
Hair in her face prob just adds to her personality.

All the Best...
Pete
