Tis the season

Lovely as usual! Was hoping to see more film, but beggars can't be choosers.

BTW, how do you manage to have all that natural (I think it is natural) light? I am so jealous! Which direction do your windows face or do you have some nice trees outside to diffuse the light? It is always very pleasant and natural.

It's aways the eyes that capture you and pull the viewer right into your images. Lovely photograph as usual. As Wes said the lighting is wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

I echo Larry's comment about the eyes! Nicely done, as usual Adina.

Yeah, it's all natural light. As far as which way my windows face, they face every direction. We are in a smaller, cottage style house, two stories, two bedrooms up, living room, kitchen, office, formal dining room down. We have 30 windows. Which is great for light, not so good for replacing windows, which we just did throughout the downstairs. Upstairs, during the winter, the light is diffused by the frost that covers the whole window (those ones go next year).

Film's on it's way....

Thanks Lara and OT,

As of this Sunday, I'm officially closed for the holidays, expect to be bombarded with photos of my kids.

Adina,

Classic facial expression. Love it....always have loved your portrait work!

Good job and way to portray the season,

Some things are just better in b/w..this is one of them. Excellent work.

Wow. Look at those eyes. They just drill right through your soul and back. You have a lovely daughter, and a real gift for capturing her beauty.

Eye Spy is absolutley right. That is one of the best shots I've seen of the eyes. Incredible!
