I had a session with a darling little three year old this week. I really loved the silouette images of her sitting with her doll at the window seat. This particualer one, being one of my favorites. I love the slight tilt of her head and the expression on her face. She looks like she is really trying to listen to what her baby doll is saying. I typed in all kinds of search words for usernames and was very pleased to find thesecretsharer who registered way back in 2004, but has yet to participate.
Post Challenge: I just noticed that my date stamp is off by one whole day. I had this scheduled session on Monday the 20th, but it was recorded for the 19th. CRAP....that sucks!!!!

To quote the Wizard of Oz, "You have something that those photographers in Kansas with all their degrees and all their ribbons will never have. You have a picture that makes people feel something."
That is what I always try to do. Thank you for the ribbon and further-more the wonderful compliment.

I'm really sorry to hear about the time/date fiasco. I had one of those on my highest-scoring image (at that time), just after I had bought the 20D. The store had set the time/date and it was exactly 12 hours off. As it happened, I shot the winning picture at dawn on Monday, so naturally the stamp showed it to be at sunset on Sunday, before the challenge was announced :-(
At least you have the Posthumous for this one (he doesn't care about the date stamp), and you didn't lose a ribbon, so I guess that helps?

So many great details: the motion blur of her finger, the little glasses, the position of her feet. It's a very sweet photo. Sorry to hear about the mess-up with the date stamp. :-/
Jennifer, this is so amazing. It has that Jennifer Short Magic in every way. It makes my heart feel all mushy just looking at it -- which I have enjoyed doing for what seems like forever!
