I always keep telling myself that I need to carry my camera with me more then I do; But then again, if you ask my wife, she will tell you that I need to stop carrying it as much as I do. Perhaps there is a middle ground there somewhere. Anyway, I digress.
Last Friday my 6 year old daughter was helping her mom (my wife) get ready for a party at our house for a women who was about to have her baby any moment. As you can imagine, my daughter was having a ball helping out. The best part of it for her was that she got to spread colorful confetti all over our house. As she picked it up, it seemed to spread everywhere. I saw the color and the magic of that moment and I asked her to stand still for just a moment.
I shot this @ 1,000 ISO 1/30th sec, f/1.4 with my 50mm. I almost threw this out, but in the end I grew to like it. I enjoy the fact that it is not crystal clear and that so much is left to the imagination.
I love your pics really !!!! Everytime I made wow when I open your blog !!!! This shoot is perfect, yes the focus is awesome and the colors wow wow wow !!! I just admire your work sincerely !!!!
you cannot beat a handful of confetti!!!
Came out great! Love the softness and the colors!
I think it’s the perfect shot and it would have been a shame had you tossed it. Keep grabbing those opportunities!
wow i like the sparkling effect. this is such a magical shot!
same here, i’m too much of a packrat to delete anything.. you never know when an image will appeal to you when you see it again.. this one’s no exception.. i really do like it..
lol @ carrying your camera more. Funny thing is i deal with the same thing. I feel i should carry it arround more. I really like this shot. The focus point is just awesome. Nice capture.
