This little nugget was going to be my only shot for My Best Shot Monday. Something about it's chaotic nature, all the color swirling around my daughter as she sat peacefully on the couch one morning doing "her homework". I just like the way it feels (thank you Lensbaby! for the groovy vibe).

But I couldn't resist this one either. So, I thought I'd give myself permission to post two.

But, then, I popped over to Mama Says Om (my favorite distraction) and I couldn't help but share these wonderful shoes (shot the same morning as the other two pix). My oldest daughter wore these shoes and now they fit my youngest. *sigh* Besides feet, shoes are one of my favorite photo subjects. I know, I know, three "best shots" is a little much. Thanks for indulging me.

If you've got more than one image you'd like to share or even an online album, let us have it! After all, it's all about sharing. And sharing is good. Don't forget to link back to Picture This so we can continue to spread the word about My Best Shot Mondays!




Here's mine--and no, after working with an umbrella light kit for the first time, I don't have more than one shot. What I do have is lots of poorly exposed shots. Oh, well. I'm sure I've learned something (like that I needed to buy a faster lens :)

I'm going to post this as "my best shot": http://www.flickr.com/photos/alissaspics/394103017/
but then I'm gonna ask you to look at these: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alissaspics/
For now all the shots I took yesterday are at the top of my photostream, and I can't pick one or two to be my "best".

I'm glad you did this today because I was having a nearly impossible time choosing between this one (which is technically nice)

and this one (which is not so technically nice but may leave you in a puddle on the floor)

this little one isn't mine - i was hired to take photos of this little gem. he's about 4 weeks old. i just love the juxtaposition between his emotion and the word on his shirt.

Since you gave permission to post 2...
We spent the whole afternoon with family, and she didn't let anyone hold her until jujst before we left. Her Uncle Bill really has the touch!

I'm not sure what does it for me in this one, probably the blue sky and the memory of warm!

I love that first shot! Well, I'm cheating, since I have an old photo but one that I used a new technique on for processing and I luv it. :)

These are just random shots, but they were feeling a litte more photogenic than usual so I decided to take advantage.

The middle is my favorite. No Prosprocessing either!

I, too, am guilty of taking a billion pictures of feet. But in our defense, baby feet are almost edible!
Anyway, here are some of my favorite shots from last week!

Here is mine! I had to do some past favorites since I can't find my camera at the moment.

And my favorite person shot would have to be this one:

This is a great idea, Tracey. Here's my first best shot monday. I love the perspective. And the look on his face!

I like the light and color here, but I am a bit disappointed in the way it actually came out.
