Glimpse

Selah and I sat out on our driveway this afternoon and watched as the workers repaved our street. I took a dozen or so photos of her while she played and danced. Many of them have her trademark sparkle and goofiness as she performed. And then there's this one, which feels like a startling glimpse at her grown-up self. And it took my breath away.
great composition - shame Selah is so camera shy ;)

Great capture! Fantastic how she's looking so directly into the camera. You got beautiful focus, lighting, composition too.

I see that growing up look in my six year old girl all the time. It's quite scary. This is a beautiful portrait but then, she's a beautiful girl 😊

@tracyleaoh @tracys @paul10 Thank you! It was one of the first nearly cloudless days in a while (and it was mid-day), so I wasn't sure anything would turn out. I'm sure I was quite a sight, laying on my back on the driveway while she danced around. Anything for the shot, right? :-)

@dustandfilm Thank you, Audrey. It's crazy how you can sometimes get a glimpse of how your kids might look as grown-ups.
