Default Why do I let life interfere with my photography?

And here we come with another extended absence from yours truly. I finally finished the last set I was working on for some friends but it took me almost a month! ugh, I hate when life finds ways of making you get away from the things you love to do.

At any rate, my sister and her friend were in town (sis lives in arizona and her friend lives in new york) and they actually called me up to see if I wanted to take some pictures of them on evening. So went up to my parent's new home in the mountainish areas, and we got some pics. I'll post more as they come along. Here's the first I finished.

Ryan, excellent perspective and pose. I also like the golden backlight.

Thank you Hayward! I have to admit, it seems all I ever get is that blown out sky lately. Trying to find some techniques to tone it down. It does play well in some photographs though

Thanks Mike! The one on the right has already told me she hates this picture because of the pose lol. I can never take a picture of her that she'll like though, so I just take pictures that I like instead

Thanks Leona! I appreciate the comment!
