The Redcoats are coming!

- -


People pictures. I don't know why I even try. They always turn out terrible. Every time I get a human in the viewfinder, I forget everything I know about lighting, composition, and timing. No eye-contact, no connection. Fortunately, Redcoats on parade work any way you can get them. The Redcoats are coming! Huzzah!

  1. LOL! I feel the same way.

    I think I'm a somewhat decent amateur landscape photographer but when my in-laws asked me to take their X-mas card photos it was a disaster. I was so embarrassed. They didn't use any of them.

  2. Yes, but you have kids to practice on. You can always sneak up on them while they're sleeping and angelic looking!
