Peek-a-boo
Yeah, we’ll keep her. There was no nap yesterday, so this was the calm between the storms. It was a busy weekend. Friday night we had dinner with friends after grandma and grandpa cancelled out. Then on Saturday it was The Pancake House, the Pumpkin Patch, and a thank you dinner from my friend Bekki’s family for helping with her benefit. Sunday was an easy day, just a birthday party for a daycare friend, but unfortunately it was during naptime. Busy, busy!
This is me attempting to take pictures with my SB-600 flash. Still looks too flashy but I really like it. I had some others that were less flashy, so I’m working on it. Settings: f2.2, SS 1/500, ISO 200, 35MM
What do you mean flashy? Do you mean bright? Cuz I think it works great with the darker background.
I know, I am a perfectionist. When I say flashy, it is too shadowy. I don’t think her face got overly bright, in losing details, but I can still see the shadows from the slats in the chair that show up on her.
I think it’s excellent with a pretty glow around her pretty face!
Oh that is a great shot!
We had one of those weekends, too….
Great capture of the calm…you’d never know from here that she skipped naps!
what a cutie!!
your weekend sounds about as busy as ours was… we didn’t get a nap either. ugh!
If you call this “flashy”….oh my, I shudder to imagine what you must think of my photos. ROFL! All I have is the on-camera pop of flash, which I avoid like the plague. I think it’s a lovely shot of your little princess!
We’ve been having nap issues lately too. Oh what fun.
If you should decide NOT to keep her, let me know. 🙂 I think this is a perfect shot. I’m detecting a bit of a devilish grin, no, yes?
Nap? Could you please define nap? I vaguely remember using that word in the distant past.
Wow…so we’re not the only ones dealing with nap issues? That’s a relief.
She’s a keeper, definitely. And I think her mommy should stick around, too. She’s rather nifty with that camera.
that’s a sweet shot! we’ve were lacking in the nap department this past weekend too. Thank God for weekdays… back to our regular scheduling!
Thanks ladies!
Oh, the naps around here have been a struggle lately, too. I am glad that she at least sleeps at daycare! She is starting to not want to nap at home and that is not a good thing.
A very nice shot. Love that little grin. 🙂
She’s adorable! And what a great shot…I wish that we ever got that much calm around here when naps get missed (which thankfully doesn’t happen very often!)
I love her ornery look, like she is getting ready to run away and be chased and dissolve into giggles. I think the flash looks great.
