Weblog Entry 2.6

I had taken some photographs of a friend's daughther when they were over the other night. As I was going through the images, I ran across these few that really grabbed me. I took out the 'noise' of the color by converting them to black and white and they became moody, almost intense, photographs.

The images caught her totally and completely wrapped up in what she was doing. Completely oblivious to me and my camera.

I love the fact that her hair is all over and that I have to look through it to see her face. I love the sweep of hair that's hanging down in a perfect curve framing her small features. I love that her face is soft and out of focus. I love the way the light illuminates her.

Simply beautiful.
