This is just stunning. I had to look twice becaust that tree and the water behind it look so much like a spot on the waterfront in Yorktown. I've tried to get dd in that tree so many times but no luck hehe.
Love the feel to this. |

I just keep coming back to this image to view it again and again.....
I really do love what you have created here, as it is so appealing and very moving to me. It touches everyone of my senses..... I must add it to me favorites right now..... Awesome Crystal.....Totallt awesome.
Almost fairylandish, and would be a great page out of a childrens story..... Maybe you should think about that, and write a childrens story about your daughter, with these style of images, to go with it..... I definately buy it.....

Greetings to your dauther. She stayed calm for how long? several seconds I suppose with the infrared. Great model |
the camera is convered to ir so it takes normal exposure times. this one was probably like 1/250 or so. |

| I'm not usually a great post-shot analysist, but I rather like the imperfection of the swing; it definitely makes it more dream-like in my mind's eye. Just my two cents, thanks! Great job. I strive for a ribbon one of these days! |
