Originally posted by ubique: Everything I love about the essential ingredients of photography is here. Light, monochrome, composition, timing and emotion. This is what I think of as the Noble Snapshot, which genre I think is the highest expression of photography. Most photographs are a depiction of an object. This photograph is an object. It's beautiful, and indelible. Silver medal and score of 9 for you. Thank you.

thankyou so much Sandy ... and yes .. this is the first pic i a long time that they have wanted framed .. they always want the twin's birthday pics framed .. small on the kitchen counter .. but that's more as a record of them growing up .. but this .. candid .. her having so much fun ..
i think i got more of a feeling of accomplishment from my family loving this than the voter's at dpc .. THANK GOODNESS .. !! ..
and now you .. thankyou again .. it really makes it so much more worthwhile .. actually entering a challenge .. when someone checks out the images that dont do as well .. very much appreciated .. xxx
