There's nothing like natural light.
On Saturday at my grandson's birthday party, my job was to take care of his new baby brother. Amidst all the ruckus--rock music blaring from gigantic speakers and 20 four year-olds dancing around us--I laid him down on a leather chair near a window to let him stretch out and noticed the beautiful light falling on his face.
Since I was trying to take some photos too (my usual job), I grabbed my camera and attempted to capture him without a flash. Fortunately, Blake is a very mellow fellow so far and stayed still for the 1/10 second exposure required.
It was also lucky that these two balls happened to be right there on the chair coordinating with his outfit and mimicking his cherubic face.
What a wonderful confluence, seeing, light, luck, props and a cooperative child.
