A mentor of mine once told me that "content trumps technique" every time. What's really nice about this one is that you have both! A superb capture.

Kelly, you're two for two today! I might rename this 'One shining beacon of light" or something similar.

Now that's a family. And you couldn't have posed it any better.

Thanks! Funny thing, Fran, I still struggle with how to pose families. I can't believe I happened to capture this.

Absolutely perfect! So much so it almost looks posed - lol. What a Mom. This would make a great Mother's Day Card.

Had to wait until I quit laughing to type. This is a photo that the family will pass down for many years.

Printed a copy to show Sandy. You would have loved the grin on her face.

Thanks. I am so happy you see the humor. My wife and I laughed so hard and my daughter came running over to the computer...she didn't get it...she couldn't see the humor...only a bad family portrait...when in reality...it is the PERFECT family portrait.

LOL! I would love to see a close crop of the mom's face....follow by the above. Ah yes, what it takes to be a mom.

"Happy Mother's Day!" That definitely is a magazine entry.

Thanks for cheering me up, Kelly!
