I Get No Respect


Uncooperative, Somewhere on I-40  -  2011
(Click on photo to enlarge.) 

What parent doesn't enjoy taking pictures of his children? Is that such an unnatural activity? I don't think so. Then why can't I get a little cooperation from my 16 year old daughter? Well, at least we have a record of what the palm of her hand looked like at this age. Maybe I should have this framed and put it on the fireplace mantel with the other family pictures!

Technical note: I made this photo shooting un-aimed over my shoulder while driving on I-40, not a technique I can really recommend. My wife strongly discourages this approach. Every time I do it. I did a little cropping in PSE to get a better composition, and then converted it to B&W.

In later years she will be frustrated not seeing what her hair, clothes looked like...way back when.
Memory photos of hands and backs of heads on your mantel will be quite the treasure. (:0)
