Haven't taken my camera out in weeks :( I actually had a session this weekend (I'll post later) and had it out with the kiddos today. Thought this was a fun capture, so I thought I'd share!

Thanks, guys! I just love it :)

Sam- yeah! I still am amazed I got it! It's actually the only one I took of the two of them... just stepped back, snapped, and there it was. I think Anders (left) was actually going towards me, while Birgitte (right) was going away - and they happened to both fall in the same place as I took the photo! I'm sad that Anders is slightly out of focus, while Birgitte is pretty darn sharp. Oh well, still makes me smile. My biggest problem is the framing - what's shown is the top half of the original pic... so much grass at the bottom! Again, oh well :).

Thanks for taking the time to comment!

If you cropped it right I think the extra grass would be fine. What was your focal length and aperture if you don't mind sharing? I'm impressed with the timing :)
