How do you get those expressions?

It seems you get your people shots at just the right second. I always seem to be a second or two late on mine.<br />MelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636365527508254969.post-36609141553243526262010-02-16T20:56:51.809-06:002010-02-16T20:56:51.809-06:00I take it that this is different than the street p...I take it that this is different than the street photography and street portraits that you described in an earlier post. Personally, I like this more because there is a feeling about this one that the other one did not have. Enjoy your photos of people.<br />SyaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636365527508254969.post-62699292832734670502010-02-16T16:49:33.016-06:002010-02-16T16:49:33.016-06:00I do not know the difference between a photo and a...I do not know the difference between a photo and a snapshot. I do feel that this image captures a tender moment between a father and daughter.

It records an unprocessed view that the camera is pointed at, with the intent of saying I was here, period.<br /><br />While this photo has been framed to "look" like a snapshot, in reality it represents a photograph. A photograph captures a moment in time, evokes or captures emotion, is well composed and sets the subject apart from the rest of the scene, among other qualities. From the smiles on their faces and limited DOF to the reflection of the little girl in her dad's sunglasses; this is a photograph. It is a photograph within a snapshot style frame, which I believe is what you were trying to accomplish. <br /><br />Well done. It is truly more than "just a snapshot". Great example of street photography.Doug Haasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12556596269817966949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636365527508254969.post-38427362125280375242010-02-16T12:36:55.108-06:002010-02-16T12:36:55.108-06:00This photo is totally about expression and moment....This photo is totally about expression and moment. You got both right. I do wish that her shirt was not so color.
