Try not to smile

Uploaded: December 31, 2009

Description

On the welcome aboard of a an Alaskan cruise my wife and I took for our 20th anniversary, I noticed my wife was reading the ship brochure head down, unaware of the confident young sun bather. I composed the picture and then called my wife's name. She obligingly smiled at me, and helped create on of my favorite photos.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
