The Gallery - Week 49 - One Word

This photograph wouldn't win any prizes for technical expertise but the fact that I took it into the sun, failed to focus properly and paid no heed to the depth of field or background actually speaks volumes about my state of unease as I captured my one shot of this moment at Longleat Animal Park a couple of years ago.

My daughter shows no evidence of anything other than being completely relaxed and beaming with pleasure.

My One Word for The Gallery prompt is:

Fearless

  5. Argh! That should have had a warning. I jumped a little. I would love to do that though strangely enough. I've actually become less fearful of spiders since having my daughter as I don't want my fear to rub off on to her like my Mums fear did with me.

    Super photo!

  8. That's a great shot, and the reason the lightening and focus is the way it is, is simply because you were doing what all normal parents would do-snapping quickly and getting the hell out of there!!

    thanks for stopping by

  9. Fantastic! I HATE spiders, so I still reckon the fact I did the same thing (without the smile) at the Edinburgh Butterfly place about a month ago is the greatest act of selfless maternal love I have yet performed for my daughters....

  13. Yikes! What a fantastic photo and I think you're all very brave (and perhaps a little bit mental!). I'm not scared of normal spiders, but that hairy monstrosity....ugh!

    Or perhaps your daughter is chilled out because she can shoot heat rays out of her eyes :D xX
