A keeper indeed! Fantastic shot that is appealing to the family of the kid as well as the rest of the world.
But let me coach you a little bit: You need to stand in front of a mirror an practice saying "that? oh that was just a shot I took without really thinking about it...yeah, I guess it's alright; thanks for the compliment". You have to say this in a nonchalant way. :-) --M. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- http://www.EnticingTheLight.com -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 2009/6/5 Brendan MacRae <[email protected]>: > > Here's a series of shots I took recently of my son Finn running around a play > yard at a mall.
