17.05.2004

I don't know, sometimes it's really difficult and sometimes a gem just comes out of the air. Today was really difficult. I'd been planning a shot all day whilst at work, how to set it up and adjust the lighting, the background and the rest of it and what do I find when I walk in?? Nothing. "Her Indoors" had thrown my props away! So there I am scratching everything that begs to be scratched and wondering what to shoot!

I took a series of shots whilst cooking the dinner on the barbie but somehow didn't fit in with what I wanted for the gallery. I posted a couple in my "EXTRAS GALLERY" just as a teaser for Jeanne!

I wandered around the house aimlessly with camera in hand waiting to be inspired and ended up in the bedroom and that's where I found "Her Indoors" looking out of the window watching the children playing with their friends. The look on her sweet face says it all! And that's when I knew I'd found my PotD.

I give you "Her Indoors"!!

BTW All of you that guessed yesterday's shot was a Mini Maglite, you were correct! Don't believe me then checkout my "EXTRAS GALLERY"

I've looked at this picture several times Ian, and apart from seeing a wonderful face, I simply can't stop admiring your finsh here.

She's beautiful! A lovely shot, Ian, really. I'm glad you posted this!

Very nicely lit portrait Ian. She's got a great expression.
Having seen you at your best:http://www.pbase.com/image/28014355, I'd say you're more than a bit overmatched.

I have to laugh as you talk about how you stewed around trying to plan a good shot and then how this great one fell into your lap! VERY nice.
Hmmm. guess I better go work on my PaD ... the time difference sure helps. (grin>
