 I decided to reshoot my 'Good Habits Bad Habits' shot from the Habits challenge of May 2004. These are the same two models (my lovely daughters) The original shot from 2004 was somewhat magical. We had taken several shots with both daughters looking Angelic. The actual shot was as a result of a spontaneous reaction by my daughter cop an attitude. As soon as I saw the shot I knew it was the one. Five and a half years later as I tried to recreate the magical moment, nothing seem to come out right. My daughters were trying to recreate the same positions and attitude. As always when I shoot them they get bored very quickly. They had had enough. I pleaded one more take
just one more take ... The result is "Bad Habits and More Bad Habits"

Once again it was a magic moment. We all laughed when my daughter flipped the bird ... I can't believe I caught it. I am going to get killed by the voters but I really love the shot. It is the natural progression from Good Habits Bad habits :D

Your girls' expressions are so fun and full of life -- the one on the right especially looks like the proverbial good girl caught in a naughty moment. It really is a delightful photo. Congrats on the twenty 1's.

Its sad you got robbed so bad on this one. This is a fantastic photo!! Twenty 1's, wow! That is dissapointing. I think some people need some humor in their lives!

I knew this was you, and I knew you've done naughty nuns before, but I just couldn't resist one nun making heavy metal devil horns and the other giving me the finger while smiling sweetly. 7 from me.

I thought this was great. Really made me laugh. I love the sense of fun and freedom you captured here. This will be fun to pull out and show their kids someday - maybe? :)

LOL.. this is a great take!

Look at that bar graph, I don't think I have seen it this evenly distributed across 1 and 10 ever before :)

Thankfully, Coley, those lovely daughters of yours don't get their looks from you! They're growing up. Hope you're growing wiser too. Happy Holidays when they finally arrive soon.

This one seems to get a bunch of mentions in the forum for being humorous. It's obviously a reprise of your earlier challenge entry that took I believe 8th place. I think you'll get the blue this time around. Good luck Cole.

I'm breaking my commenting silence for this image. Job well done in that you had the cajones to do it and here at DPC to boot. LOL Love it and can't wait to read the comments.

Would love to give you a 10 but I'm not voting in this challenge. I don't believe I should.

Change of heart, 10!

I'm giving this a 10 because it's a fun picture and it makes me smile. The left nun's facial expression is just great.

Thank you SO MUCH for the hearty Laugh I got when I keyed into this. An interesting take on the subject of Religion and perhaps one that some people would agree with considering the history of the various churches of the world seen in the context of Time.

Erm OK. You getting your butt chewed off yet? Did the models have a gas?
Fun shot, perhaps a bit risqué but the church also needs to laugh @ itself.
I better shut up before I get struck down by lightning :)

Love the look of the one on the right..."Am I gonna get in trouble for this, even though I was asked to do it?" While the one on the left is like...:ROCK ON!!!!"
