This is a shot of Emma I captured shortly after the rain had stopped at our house. She and Lucie went into the backyard and were playing with the Crape Myrtle trees. They would pull a branch and squeal with delight as the droplets of rain water fell around them. The sun was setting so it is creating a halo effect behind her. It was a fantastic moment to have a long lens and a camera to be an unobtrusive observer to their merriment and wonder. I will post the photo of Lucie when I have it done. These are black and white film photographs that I am learning how to develop myself in a darkroom at the Arts Center here in Little Rock. I am quickly falling in love with the process of creating a print that handcrafted by me. It is an empowering thing to control the photographic process from start to finish. All of the black and white images will have been printed by me in the darkroom unless I tell you they are not!
