I really love this week’s theme, “first thing in the morning.” Of course my first instinct was to take a photo of something coffee related. If you know me at all, you know I love my coffee, especially first thing in the am! But, I decided to go for something I love a little bit more than my morning coffee, my kids.
Thank you to Trina Dinnar – https://www.facebook.com/TrinaDinnarPhotography for the theme suggestion, I just love this one!!
I decided to keep my camera in my bedroom so that I could try to take an candid early morning photo of one of my kids, whichever would wake up first. Not surprisingly, that was my son, Mayer. When Mayer woke up yesterday morning, my husband, who was already getting ready for his day, went to get Mayer from his room and brought him to me in bed. I quickly hopped out of bed, grabbed my camera and took this. Mayer in all his morning glory with blanky and Elmo in tow.
I only had a little bit of light, coming from the left, as you can see, and I wasn’t about to use a bright flash on this little angel so early in the morning, so the image is a bit noisy, which I completely love here!
Please make a suggestion for next week’s theme in the comment section below. The theme can really be anything you want! Come on, challenge me!
This is wonderful! I love my kiddos sleepy faces in the morning and Mayer is just precious!
I would suggest next weeks theme be "last thing at night" to see that contrast in light and mood from morning to night!
Oh, I like Bryony’s idea!
