If I may repeat myself ... The three most important things to keep in mind when photographing humans, and that is: LIGHT.... EYES.... ACTION..... Or any combination of these and the chances are one will have a more than snap shot photo. This one is way beyond a "happy snap!" One for a gallery show! Actually it's hard to explain all the nuances other than "Holy cow I wish I'd taken that!" Damn yer good old buddy! The light: is an absolutely perfect example of " shooting from the shadow side!" The eyes: similarly perfect, almost riveting.."Like what's he doing?" The action. No not physical action. But the expression is wonderful! If you stay with this child picture taking thing a bit longer maybe some day you could become a "successful professional!" ;-) ;-) ;-) Now for heaven sake folks it's a joke between Sonny and myself. :-) However I'm sure you all get the jist of it. :-) ted tedgrantphoto.com Ted Grant Photography Limited 1817 Feltham Road Victoria BC V8N 2A4 250-477-2156
