Here is a shot I took of Youngest in our backyard last night.
I noticed that at Iheartfaces, the challenge this week was simply "black".
Youngest just happened to have her "Biker" jacket on while we were raking leaves,
so I asked her if she would pose for me.
As you can see she wasn't thrilled about my request.
But with her dark eyes and her steely glare... it works nicely with the leather jacket.
What strikes me about this shot, is that it's as though I'm looking into the future,
since Youngest looks so much older than her almost 9 years.

This is definitely my Sweet Shot for today.
Tomorrow I promise to share the rest of our
impromptu photo shoot that occurred while raking.

I am thrilled that Darcy is once again hosting Sweet Shot Tuesday.
Very cool shot! Great eyes!
ReplyDeleteI agree, her steely glare works with the black leather jacket very well, beautiful portrait....
ReplyDeleteLove the way she looks at the camera! perfect! She is posing like a pro.
ReplyDeleteAnd I also love the way you composed the picture.
hi dana - i love this sweet shot - can't wait to see the rest!
ReplyDeletefollowing the chaos of adjusting to life as a puppy-mom, i'm finally getting myself back out there in blogland, getting caught up with all my favorite folks - how i've missed your blog! just spent a while catching up on the last 3 weeks over here ... loved all the h'ween shots (fab costumes!) and omg those basement lights are to die for (love!) ... but wow was i ever saddened to read about the horrible car accident that took the lives of your eldest's friends - what a tragedy. our town was rocked 2 years ago by a similar tragedy involving a young high school girl who had everything going for her - the only good news is that her life and loss continue to teach us all to "slow down" ... i'm so sorry your daughter had to feel this kind of loss at such a young age ...
She has that cool stare down cold.
ReplyDeleteAwesome photo! Handsome 'dude' ~ thanks, namaste, Carol (A Creative Harbor) Happy SST ^_^
