January Favorite

It's time to post my January favorite photo for Courtney and Click It Up a Notch's "I Clicked it Up a Notch in January Contest." This month I decided to get back to basics and start paying more attention to the light. I was playing with my daughter in her room and really paying attention to where the light was in the room as I took photos. I knew I got some good shots but didn't notice this shot until I got it on the computer. I love the way the light is hitting her face and the eye contact between her and Elmo really tells a story! The rest of the story is that she had been wearing that night gown for a week straight...everywhere!

I've been told that the search for your personal style starts with your favorite images. Here are some of my recent favorites.

 

Water

The last day of our Christmas Kauai vacation, I went to the beach at sunrise. I wanted to stay forever. Knowing that was impossible, I took my camera with me in an attempt to capture the beauty and peacefulness and take it home with me. At the time I felt like the attempt was futile; really nothing can compare to the moment. But today, as I processed those photos, I discovered a glimmer of the beauty I was trying to bottle. I found several treasures and since I couldn't pick a favorite, I decided to post them all. Do you have a favorite? Do you find them beautiful or boring?
