Best Shot Monday - Take a Picture!

When you want him to smile he runs away or puts up the hands; when you're busy with something else, he comes and gets in your face to say, "take a picture, Mommy!".
Some days I just can't win.
Then again, those are the days I get a shot like this.

(Now if only I could easily figure out why my photo colors are no longer saving and/or uploading to the web in the full color saturation I see in Lightroom or Photoshop. sigh.)

For more Best Shots go see Tracey at Mother May I.

Those closeups are worth so much, aren't they!?

I've got an ornery little subject here, too...she usually tells me no more pictures, except she's started asking me for them when she's supposed to be in bed sleeping. Little stinker!

Lovely shot. Mia is the SAME way, except that the NEVER asks to be in pictures.

Happy Monday :)

Nope. We will never win as parents. We only win by having them as our rewards! Love the close up.

Stacy said...

Oh what a little cutie!

So, what color space are you using? I use sRGB, and that seems to work fine. I have heard that Adobe RBG isn't the best color space to use.

Jaimee said...

Oh yeah...totally agree on this one...they are tough to grab just right! He's a cutie!

Oh, and on your colors...its probably your color profile in one or more of your applications...for web you should only use SRGB...I had to study everything about color profiles a few months ago when I started doing some graphic design...it is SUCH a confusing thing!!! SRGB for all applications will probably fix your problem!
