♫ Dizzy ♫

Uploaded: September 04, 2008

Description

OK, I am totally trying something new on this shot! lol This is my 5 year old, Isabel, or Izzi, whose song is "Dizzy," - "I'm so dizzy. My head is spinning....like a whirlwind..." Izzi was very appropriately born during the year of Hurricane Isabel! lol

I did not apply any filters or effects to this image - this is how I took it. I did adjust the color and crop it slightly. Any thoughts? It is so different than what I am used to, but it really seemed to fit the title :) I entered it into catch-all... right choice?

Exif: F Number: 22, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/4 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 28.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT

Debbra this is a terrific capture...I'm dizzy just looking at it!
Very nice panning shot. How is it that kids can spin round and round and enjoy that feeling? LOL!
I think you and your husband are so cool giving your kids songs to go with their names and more importantly their personalities!

Great movement/action shot Deb. Very creative for her song. I sure am dizzy now!

Were you panning the camera when you did this? #6412404

Debbra Bailey September 04, 2008

Thank you to everyone for commenting on my image! Sorry to make you all dizzy! You should try spinning WITH her sometimes! lol

Amber, I had to pan a little to stay with her, as she didn't spin in place very well! I think I am glad I did, bec. it added the motion to the background... #6412662
