I ♥ Faces: Completely Candid

I love my macro lens. I caught this one of my daughter while at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, GA. We were in the Day Butterfly Center where it gets very, very hot and humid. She stood in the mist and got cooled off.

Dancing in the mist   flare bw WEB

Confession time: I added the flare and converted to b/w. I love the way it turned out. Now it’s your turn to find your favorite candid shot and enter it over at I ♥ Faces.

I knew you'd make it in the 10! It is really a great shot! And I wouldn't have known about the flare if you didn't confess, LOL! You are so talented! So glad to have met you. Wish we could have made it to Calloways together. Miss AL a lot! Natalie
