[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Do you notice the navel? As if the little boy was a Superboy and in a flying pose. As soon as I clicked my 1st shot, the grandmother stood up and mumbled some words to me, smiled and asked me to wait.

This is the 2nd part of my earlier post when the grandmother noticed me and asked me to shoot their family portrait. Here you see 2 girls and a boy with navel exposed. She was so proud of her grandchildren and made sure they were all properly behaved beside her to have this taken.

I am taking time off to shoot photography and will not post any new ones until then, but perhaps I will find cybercafe and visit your gallery. So meantime be happy and feel good about yourself.

HI Bill
I remember this lovely lady with the children.
Its a good shot especially this time she looks like she has her hands full with the boy who is obviously trying to wiggle out.
Dot
Have a good and safe trip and will look forward to your postings when you get back.

Aahh... Lovely picture of proud grandma ? and the kids, Bill.
Pity the boy is not interested in your good work, but the expression on the faces of the little girls, makes it all.
Hopefully you got the girls also smiling like grandma ?
greetings from Jan

Its great that she is proud of her grandchildren. Its a shame there wasnt a bench or something around so that the portrait could be more formalised and get them all looking in your direction. Im sure sure she welcome a formal portrait of her grandchildren. As it is it is a lovely natural but disorganised looking portrait.Lovely natural colours and lighting and good clarity.
warm regards
David

Olá Bill

Gostei muito desta foto da mãe com suas crianças. O detalhe das garotinhas vestidas iguais é muito interessante.
Cores muito bonitas...bom trabalho.
Parabéns!

Hi Bill,
A super shot ! really.
The grandmother is very proud on the children, as can be seen on her face. And indeed, I see the special navel :-)
The image has great quality in it: colors, sharpness, depth of focus and the composition are very good. TFS.
Joop!
