Often I will ‘see’ a picture in my minds eye before I ever pull out the camera. I will have an idea, and then go to shoot it. Sometimes it is better than what I had imagined and sometimes it is nothing like what I had imagined. This can sometimes be hard because I will not be satisfied with a really good picture because it just didn’t turn out the way I had seen it in my mind! And as I have said before I think that as an artist, we are our own worst critic, so I often let others see the pictures that I am un-sure about to get their reactions.
For awhile now I have been thinking about taking a picture of Kennedy’s little feet in Stu’s hands. I can’t describe exactly what kind of picture I had in mind, but it was not this! However, there is something about this picture that I like. I don’t love it. I am not thrilled that I didn’t capture the picture that I saw with my minds eye. But yet, there is something about it that I sort of like. Maybe it is just the simple fact that it is my husbands hands holding my daughters feet. I don’t know. That is why I am posting this – just to see what you all say! Is it good? Is it bad? Let me know what you think!
