Sorry I have been away for so long, I rarely touch my camera.

Maddy graduates high school next month and she wanted me to take a few. (we also paid a pro to take some)

This is one I took today, which do you like better?

It has been a while. Nice to see you have found your camera.

I actually find it hard to decide a winner here. I like the extra space in the first shot, I think it gives more context and mood to the shot. On the other hand I like the vertical positioning of the second shot, with Maddy's head closer to the top of the frame rather than central.

Overall I lean toward shot 1 I think.

How time slips by, I still tend to think of your girls at a young age when you were posting their photos as kids, rather than as the young woman finishing school.
