Nineteen

Nineteen by Stephanie Struckus.
It was hard to get this picture because Sarah kept moving around. My little P & S doesn't take my picture at the exact moment I want it to. It thinks a little too hard sometimes and wastes all of my time: meaning I get only half of Sarah's body.

Sarah, can I make this public?

Half of Sarah is better than none.

This picture is great. So playful, bright, and spontaneous.

I like it for those reasons too, Greg. The only way it could be any better is if it included the top half of Sarah as well!

No problem. I'm at my parents house right now so I will sent it to you as soon as I can. Maybe I'll even put one up on my Flickr.

I think the delay makes the photo better! It makes it look more off-the-cuff.

the focous is very good. It's not perfect which makes it special and unique.

This picture is great. I think Point and Shoots can be just as effective at taking good photos as a Canon Rebel (I still soooo want one though! ;o))

What's great about this shot is the focusing. Your mind kind of tells you that the flower should be in focus but it's not, your friend Sarah is.

I'm afriad you're just going to have to accept that it's a good capture. Great colours too! :o)

faygate - Thank you thank you thank you! I am starting to warm up to this photo more too. I agree that point and shoots can make really loyal cameras and the one I have is actually a really good one that Greg got me. It has more than just a shutter button.

The focusing was not intentional actually. I was trying to get the flower in focus but my camera didn't want it that way. I'm starting to think that it is a little smarter than I am.
