Kinda like..
...oh, putting a bug in his ear that I want something to come of it.
I don't have a prayer more specific than that right now.
I know I want to touch people, and I know that I want to be creative.
I have a feeling if I talk to God about it long enough he will work something out for me.
I am not in any big rush, just thinking ahead.
So, until I feel pulled in a specific direction...I am gonna just keep on shooting pictures!!
Today was a hum-drum overcast dreary day, which makes me think that maybe I should have set my ISO higher, but it is too late for that now.
Wait a minute, you have no idea what I am talking about yet.
Forgive me, my mind races ahead!
I threw my camera in my van with me today when I headed out to run some errands, desperately hoping for something other than my dog or lemons to photograph.
I stopped at a local park hoping to shoot some flowers or playground equipment!
When I arrived there was a little girl there gleefully feeding the ducks.
I quickly got down on the grass and started trying to catch the action without getting the girl.
Ahhhhh ha ha ha, I couldn't help but think about the face of a dog on the bill of a duck post from awhile back. Do you see it?? The pointy puppy ears and little black doggy nose?
I soon realized the fun of the shot was not the flurry of ducks, but the joy that the girl had while feeding them.
That was what needed to be captured!
So, I motioned to the mom who was just a little ways off, asking in mom sign language if I could take a picture of her girl.
She signaled back a hearty yes.
I was so excited because that freed me up for so much more.
This precious doll was fearlessly feeding an unbelievable number of ducks tidbits of bread with wild abandon.
She figured out that with just a few nibbles she could have them following her every move!
She walked away, with purpose...ducks in hot pursuit of whatever she would bestow.
Oh my...just look at the following she has as she runs off, tossing the last little bite!
I really like these next two!
She is just on the verge of being a big girl, but still has her cute toddler chubbiness as well.
Ohhhhhh, where did my babies go?
My tall lanky girl doesn't have a single bit of that little girl look any more!
Ahhhhh, is this adorable or what???
Something caught her by surprise, because I can tell you right now, it wasn't fear!
She was one gutsy little girl out there with all those greedy ducks!
I was so thankful to this sweet Momma who let me take pictures of her spunky child!
I learned a lot today as I gently followed her around, trying to capture her personality.
I do wish the light would have been better, or that I had done a better job at harnessing the light.
That's okay...maybe next time!
You know what I like very best about all of these pictures?
This was the middle child!
I mean, come on...how often does a middle child get to have their very own "photo shoot", sans siblings?!?
What a face!!!
Thanks again to this Mom of three who let me play with her girl, and this sweet little darlin' who will be grown before her momma knows it!!!
