I took this mother-daughter photo while walking on Walnut Street. I love how vibrant their pink outfits stand out against the cool neutrals of the street and the sidewalk.The little girl's polkadot pants contrast nicely with the lines and textures on the road and sidewalk. The light bathes over them quite beautifully, and the way it illuminates their clasped hands is a perfect representation of their relationship. I cropped the photograph to eliminate any competing red-based colors and to center the focus on them. I also adjusted the brightness, saturation, vibrancy, and color slightly to make their pink outfits pop more.
The sincerest form of flattery...:The photographer I was trying to emulate is street photographer Nils Jorgensen, whose work you can find on Flickr at: www.flickr.com/photos/nilsjorgensen/sets/72157594340128552/
I was specifically interested in his set titled "We two form a multitude" and his unique way of capturing relationships between people, while also incorporating vibrant color. I think that this photograph speaks to the love that is present in many of his photographs and uses the same vibrancy of color .
Critique: Although I like that I captured them from behind and therefore without their knowledge, which is very similar to much of Jorgensen's work, it would have been nice to see their faces. Also, I feel like it could have been a more impactful photo if my angle had been slightly lower.
Conclusion: I *really* like this photo. And although I had many others that would have worked well with Jorgensen's style, I was really drawn to this one. Their matching outfits and the natural and intimate gesture of their clasped hands is very genuine.

Pretty in Pink, with the lovely gold butterfly, glass flower, japan tensha flower bead, fairy charm, pink pearls, 14k gold clasp etc. is a gem to have. Versatile and glamourously girly, you can wear it in 2 ways. (Check it out in my flickr album.) This is the perfect piece for a romantic day out with your loved one or for a saturday high tea outing with your girlfrens.
Day 124/365
My husband was the senior class sponsor this year. As such, he had to chaperon the prom. The last time I went to a prom with him was his first year of teaching, eight years ago. This year, though, I had JD. I'm in.
For amazing photos of the concert, check out the set by Groovehouse, shooting for the Houston Press.
Facts About Peonies
The Roman legions first brought Peonies to England in about year 1200.
Peonies were described in botanical books as early as 1636.
Peonies (along with the Plum Blossoms) are the traditional floral symbols of China, where it is called Mudan. In 1903, the Qing Dynasty declared the Peony as the national flower of China.
If grown in the sun, leaves of Peonies turn from green to burgundy in just one week. Planted among fall-flowering perennials such as Echinacea purpurea (the purple cone flower) and Eupatorum purpureum, Peonies come into their own color once again!
The Japanese name for the Peony, Ebisugusuri means medicine from China. In traditional folk medicine, Peony root was used as a treatment for menstrual cramps, asthma and convulsions.
Peonies' exquisite, large blossoms, often fragrant, make excellent cut flowers and the foliage provides a background for annuals or other perennials.
