Today was day 2 of our granddaughters mini-vacation so we continue with her as the Photo of the Day. I took many good photos while she was here; unfortunately, only a few can make it to this page. Here, she has a little blue swing that she loves. The weather was much nicer today and she rode in it multiple times. The shot itself wasn’t too difficult. I knew I would need flash as the background was too bright for an exposure without it. Here, like other times, I exposed for the background light and used the flash as fill light on her.

When her Mom and Dad came to pick her up, they played out in the backyard doing spins so I captured the action here. The big thing here was to set the shutter speed high enough to stop the action. Her facial expression say it all.

Lastly, we have a Guest Photo of the Day below from my daughter, who happens to be Andie’s Mom. This is the little sleeping beauty resting during nap time. The fun is so exhausting…
