Every great intention was had of continuing to do these posts when we went away, but alas, as the way of the world would have it, that just wasn't possible.
After being back for a week, we have managed to play catch up, and here is our Autumn post.
For this theme, we once again enlisted the service of my ever suffering nephew... and after attempting to do these images with some fading light the first time... which didn't work... take 2 went much better.
Well, as good as you can imagine...after homework of collecting the leaves for safekeeping in case the garden service swept them all up and left us high and dry, the novelty of throwing the autumn leaves in the air waring off and the fun and sun fading, it again became a bribing session from my side and wails of "Oh... when is it going to end...??" from his side. We also had some help from a good family friend who thought she would assist with the leaves, as the wind was apparently too strong for my nephew to throw and 'pose' at the same time.
After a few "just one more", and even more " now we have to collect the leaves again", we finally managed to get some good shots, and these are the few that have been selected to showcase our theme.
Week 11 : Autumn
Its always a great learning curve when doing a project like this and shooting with children. Maybe next time we may have to try someone elses child, to see how well we cope with a non-family member giving grief while trying to do a photoshoot... Anyone offering?
Thank you beautiful nephew for always being initially excited to do these projects, and to my sister and bil for never minding. :)
As always, thoughts and comments welcome :)
Live...Love...Remember
