Too Pretty To Cry

Description

Single Focal Point can emphasize one area in our image by the way we photograph our subject, in this case blurring other parts of the image and the subject itself draws the viewer to the eyespot of the feather... As a little girl I had a favorite uncle who enjoyed spoiling me. While trying to come up w/ a title for this image, I remembered him telling me "you're too pretty to cry". I dont know what I was crying about but remembered thinking what does that have to do w/ crying? He was very soft-hearted toward me and I cried plenty of tears when he died. As a mom and grandmother of two little girls, I've likely said it myself a time or two... You're too pretty to cry :) F1.4 1/25 iso 100 @50mm
