The current theme for the Round Robin Photo Challenge is 'The Almost Photo'. You know the photo that could have been a great picture, but for some reason it just didn't work out! We all have them, I generally delete them and move on.
Two weeks ago Sonny and I were photographing a wedding. With us was a new intern who wants to get into wedding photography. I always teach them to keep their eyes on what happens when I'm setting up the group shots. It's during that time when the really fun candid photo opportunities happen.
During the set up of the bride with the groomsmen, I noticed the intern/wanna be assistant was in her own little dream world. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw this ....
Check out the expression on the groomsmen directly behind the bride. What was so happening? Unfortunately, I don't know as I was distracted with set up and wasn't focused on them at that moment. (sigh)
This last photo is my granddaughter, Amelia. She was planning on planting a wet kiss on me. My intention was to sneak a photo of her as she wasn't allowing me to take any pictures that day. It could have been a fun photo if it was in focus! =)

I love that second photo, even though it's not in focus.
ReplyDeleteTwo grear almost photos! Nice job! Have a good weekend! :)
ReplyDeletegreat, duh!
ReplyDeleteNow I will wonder all day what that guy was thinking...:-)
ReplyDeleteHi Monica :)
ReplyDeleteAwww... so cute! The bride is the hit of the photo. You can't see her face, but her eyes convey a goofy smile. The imagination can fill in all kinds of reasons for the emotion of the moment. I LOVE it. That is a super photo! And I like the soft focus on the little girl. Very nice.

The first picture is very funny and the second real cute !
ReplyDeleteYeah, you can just say you were going for a soft focus on the second shot. It's almost impossible to keep small children in focus anyway.
ReplyDeleteToo bad you missed out on that first shot because there was definitely something interesting going on there.
Heh. Imperfect or not, the expressions make both of these shots special!
ReplyDeleteImperfections make pictures perfect as well. More natural and real. I also like the second pic. It's just lovely.
