Facing the Flu & Framing the "Hole" Face

Greetings---hope you are well...
We're fighting the flu down here in the schools. Can't decide about getting that flu shot...the most recent
news program I saw said everyone under 25 is in the greatest danger of infection. That brings my stats down
considerably. But I do work in a school, so that brings the danger of being infected back up. Hmmm...
Anyway, I think you'll like the image for this week. This is the cutie mentioned in a earlier blog about
our visit to lovely Edisto Beach, SC. Though she looks like a a little angel here, she was the one who
screamed a little more frequently than I would have liked---ok, I don't actually like screaming except outside
& far away. Hopefully, she will get over that phase soon.
This picture was taken at a playground. I had the kids look out of the hole & took a shot. This is the best
one because of the facial expression. It's simply using what is there to look at things a little differently
through the lens. Obviously a wide shot couldn't have the same impact. Create an interesting framing by
using a fence, a tree, doghouse, whatever. Notice what is around you. Be creative! Find a new perspective.
PHOTIP: Become more observant by noticing how to isolate things with a zoom lens. This is where
photography shines. Don't have a good zoom? Buy one. No money? Move yourself in for a more interesting shot.
Blessings!
