time passes by...
Uploaded: April 24, 2008
I had originally entered this in the free contest, but I just love it too much and so before I even find out if it gets an EFP, I am pulling it out and putting it in the cash contest. I was at the park with my children and as I watched them play...this image was speaking very loudly to me. I was hoping this image would evoke this kind of emotion when I took it, and for me it speaks so loudly. Time passes by way too quickly, don't take these precious moments for granted. Taken on an overcast afternoon with Canon 70-200L ss250, f3.5, iso 100

member since: 9/8/2005 I took my kids to the park this afternoon and my daughter was swinging away, however my son found more joy in pushing the swings. As I was watching them play...something in me just saw this picture, so my son can be thanked for the swings moving in the background :) I had hoped when I was taking these that there would be this feeling and emotion in this photo, and I am happy with the result. Thanks so much for your comments :)
