Default A willow tree and a fast two year old!

Whew...two year old are hard! I spent most of the hour with this little one begging for her to stay still for just a second and then running after her and just taking what I could get. After looking at them, I was glad she wouldn't stay put because she made me think outside of the box and I ended up with shots I wouldn't have thought to take before...lol

Wow!!! What beautiful shots. She is sooooo gorgeous and full of life. I'm glad she didn't stay still and made you think outside the box because these are priceless.

Maybe that's how you should shoot from now on! On the run!

Those are all fantastic! Very well done.

Fantastic photos RuthieMae! I especially like the expression on the first and the perspective in the second. Congratz

Those are some great shots. I think that the 4th one would be better if the kid was facing the camera more. It's still adorable though.
