Priceless



Do you ever take a shot that isn't photographically perfect, but that you just love in your heart? This is one of those. I took it the day of the graduation-from-high-school party for my older son, Jon. That's my mom, in blue, with the enormous smile on her face, laughing at something Jon said. I love the expression on Jon's face, too. So Jon. So Mama.

    I just love it when a photo can capture someone's personality. It is so wonderful.

    I bet your mom is a fantastic lady.

    Candid shots are often the best.

    Great shot! Sometimes a photo may not follow all of the rules of a "perfect" photo but as long as you are happy that is all that matters. I think it captures the moment very nicely.

    That photo is a treasure. Not only does it capture your mother's personality and your son's happiness, it shows the celebration of a special day. To me, that's perfection!

    Beautiful! Sorting through the graduation photos this week, I realized that it was facial expressions, more than anything else, that made me love a photo.
