An Autumn Portrait
Uploaded: November 04, 2012 03:15:47 | Entered: November 24, 2020 15:38:01
I was photographing this bridge in very dense fog (visibility was less than a quarter mile most of the day) when this young family started walking by. Part way across the bridge the little girl turned around and asked Mom to take her picture – Mom being equipped with an iPhone had the girl pose near the railing – I simply captured the moment of them capturing their moment!

Added this one to my favorites Jeff. I love everything about it. Love the fall colors, the fog, the design of the bridge, the little girl posing for mom. Composition, pov, sharp details, just the beautiful look of the picture. A winner in the MT category for sure and probably in a couple more. Gorgeous my friend. #10403886Claudia Kuhn November 04, 2012
