My entry was a candid shot. Not posed -- not setup.

My husband and son went with me to Colonial Williamsburg on Mother's Day to shoot for the fences challenge. (Thanks, boys!!)

I had hoped for a bird on one of the interesting fences.

I didn't have much luck with that.

I did find a squirrel, though:

(they do seem to be my lot in life)

I found a bird in front of a fence.


I even found a rabbit!


But as we were walking around, I saw a family about a block away. Two little girls in sundresses. One in an orange dress with a big straw hat, the other in a sundress of cool colors. The girl in the hat was standing on the fence, looking at the horses. It was the perfect shot!! I was too far away!!

I started running. My 7D with the 100-400L lens around my neck.

I stumbled, I started to fall. I almost caught my balance. But twisted my ankle and went down. Saved the camera though! Got up and hobbled towards the shot.

Hat girl had gotten down and was running along the fence.



But cool color girl was still there, and I was able to get the shot.

This one would not have had much chance but it surely is a curious conversation ON the fence.
Needless to say, totally candid.
