ELIZABETH

WINNER OF GROUP AVATAR CHALLENGE IN FRAMED FACES (NO BACKGROUNDS) NOVEMBER 2009.

One of my four grandaughters, Elizabeth. Taken earlier this year in February when she was about 2 1/2 yrs. She was bouncing around on my bed while I was taking loads of shots. This is the only one that turned out half decent and it is not as sharp as I would like. She is just can’t keep still for more than a nano sec.

    lovely! she is beautiful

    Thank you Sam, for your kind comment.

    Oh Sue this is gorgeous – this should be printed out large, framed and put above your mantel piece forever! I don’t know what it would have been like with the sharpness that you were after, but I think the softness of the shot actually enhances it. It gives it a purer, dreamlike quality for me. She’s seriously cute by the way ;o)

  • Sue Smith replied

    I do have a print of it Zoe but I didn’t do a large one just 7×7 I think. I have so many prints of photo’s of the grandchildren I could paper the house with them. Lol. Having said that I do like this one in particular and you are right about the softness, it adds rather then takes away. Thank you for your lovely comments about her.
