A flower in the middle of the road

Just felt like posting this one for no reason. It was taken downtown Newark Ohio on the square median. Composition is the key to making an ordinary subject interesting. With a strong composition you can make a weak subject stand tall.

Prom 2012

My daughter just recently went to her senior prom, I must say she looked stunning. She was so nervous about her date arriving she just wouldn't relax for a picture. Even with every trick I used I just couldn't get her to calm down. Her high strung friend that was bouncing off the walls as soon as we arrived at the lodge didn't help matters much. It was just one of those times when I wished I could slow the clock and take my time but I had to work fast. The one hour I had to shoot was gone in the blink of an eye and so was her junior prom. But wait, did I mention it was my son's senior prom? He was like a mouse in the corner just waiting for his friends to arrive for one last grand smash before graduation. Dressed in a nice rental tux he looked like a fine young gentleman. My portion of the night lasted but an hour but theirs will last them a life time. Prom 2012
