Her way

Basia McAuley

Her way

I decided to make the most of the nice weather so my little girl & I played in the park.. I tried to take some good shots but she’s forever running from the camera, she’s very strong willed and everything always has to be her way so here it is!
P.S.. She’s also had a big hair cut this week :o)
Taken with Nikon D200, 14-24 wide angle lens

Her way belongs to the following groups:
