"My Girls"

Uploaded: September 10, 2007

Description

I took this the day after I had bought my D70. I blew it up for my wife for Mother's Day two days later. I just turned my girls loose in the field and followed them around. I had a good idea what I wanted and they worked themselves right into a nice composition for me.

Absolutely charming. Isn't it wonderful what you can find if you just learn to "see"? Your patience was amply rewarded with a beautiful composition of an adorable subject. Dale #4772363

I really love this photo as well. I have a similar one of my daughter in a field of daisies and it's my absolute favorite picture of her. I know your wife had to just fall in love with this one instantly. There is something about a field of flowers that just screams chilhood innocence- and I think you captured that beautifully. #4776055

Bravo Tim! This image is really something - the colors and comp are awesome. I have three boys - if they were in this scene they would be throwing the flowers or poking each other with sticks. Keep up the great work. Best Regards, Steven #4812218
