The itinerary for today had a visit to the Turner Hall so I could watch the Swiss music festival in all of its glory. I thought that a photo of me attempting to yodel would have been a great subject, albeit one that would have no sound attached to it. Believe me, your ears and eyes have been spared a moment they would have never been able to get back. However, as things usually do, the plans were changed last minute as a friend of my daughter's wanted to come over and play. Being ever the opportunist, I set up a fashion shoot upstairs and let my camera go to work. My daughter's friend is just about as photogenic as she is and it makes my hobby so much more enjoyable since I get to do what I like to do and spend a lot of time with her. As they came out of her room, I played the part of fashion photographer and snapped away, telling them to "work it" and to "walk the runway".
This was one of my favorites that I took as both of them have so much fun in their faces. Their eyes are very telling, giving the photograph a unique characteristic showing their personalities. Another cool accident was that my external flash had not charged up completely giving the photo a very soft feature to the background and their heads. It went on for another few minutes, but not before catching this moment in time that I can almost see posted in their senior yearbook another 10 years from now.
