Because She Tapped My Arm & Asked if I Would Take Her PIcture...
I went to a baby shower for a friend's daughter's newly adopted baby. Another friend brought her daughter, almost a year-to-the-day older than my Ashton. I asked if I might take a couple photos of her, and she was hesitant (though her mom asked if I could get some good "face photos" for her). After the first 2-3, I rejoined the group when a short while later she asked me to take more. She began to delight in the posing and would instruct me in where and how to photograph her! I got a few dozen photos I think her mom will like. I'd taken this as a psudo-HDR-2-image, compressed it and this outcome is better by far than the single original.
I wonder if I can trade her in for Ashton ("No more pictures Grandma!") for a year until he gets with the program!
@dgrynn There was no "posing" her...haha...she told ME what she wanted! She did throw in a little "Toddlers & Tiaras" hands on cheek (yech!) so, for her, I took a couple and then threw out some other suggestions!
