"Polaroid Moment"
by Tim Lauro

My wife, best friend and our two pups who will soon be joined by a new bundle of joy that's just 15 weeks along. Our big day should be early June 2003. I have all I could ever want for the holidays.

Hit F11 Key for best viewing of this image

I changed this to a Polaroid Type shot using a freeware action in Photoshop 7. I like the original image, but when putting together our scrapbook, my wife came up with the idea when mounting it. I like it a lot and hope you do to.

Sony DSC-717 & Promaster 5750 Speedlight
Bounced Flash with fill flash on full exif

Great idea Tim. The tilt of the shot adds immensely to its strength. Fremiet

Very nice picture. I love the fact you have kept your boxers' ears uncropped. Congrats on a the new baby. I am a new uncle (well, for about 10 months now) and I just love my baby niece to peices. Happy Holidays! --Eric Lamont

I saw the earlier image, and I think you did a good thing here. I like it. It's an appropriately "informal" style for a nice keepsake kind of shot.
