My wife and I had a lovely date a few days ago, enjoying a rare moment without the kids. While driving home I noticed the beautiful light as the golden hour arrived and asked if she would let me take a shot of her in that light. This is the first shot I took, before making adjustments to the camera. Later shots were much better in terms of adjusting for the light. But my wife quickly grew bored with all of this and lost the great smile that appeared in the first shot. So I'm going with this shot because a great smile beats perfect camera settings.
And yes, for the record, I have these photos for the blog out of order a bit while I'm catching up. This was actually taken before the dragonfly photo.
