Don,

I like the second shot of your daughter and the third, grab shot, quite a 
lot.

The grab shot feels like you've caught a typical moment, one we see
all the time, but rarely have anything there to capture it except for
memory.

Nice stuff, certainly enjoy them.

Daniel

PS: Must feel odd to have her
