I am working my way through the book Photographing Children by Ginny Felch and Allison Tyler Jones - and I am liking it very much.
At the end of each chapter there is an assignment. This one is the first -
"Now that you are more aware, create a children's portrait that reflects some of who you are and your style."
I thought about that a lot and when I saw my own daughter lying on the warm earth, breathing in the new grass and soaking up the sun - I was flung back into my own ten year old body doing exactly the same thing, eyeing a horizon that was both so close and yet so distant - and I threw myself down to take a picture that was really all about me!
