Off-Centered and Ackward

The photo I’m about to post is awful- among it’s problems- it’s off-centered and awkward.

This “lovely” example of a picture gone bad was take about a week and half ago.  Cody and I took an evening to go out and take pictures.  We went out the a native plant area on the college campus.  (It was actually because the weather fooled us into thinking it wasn’t as hot as it’s been. . .)

I took Candice Stringham’s Portrait Photography Class earlier this year.  One peace of advice that she gave me was not to photograph Cody from a lower level. . . Of course, I do that because I’m shorter then him.  Her advice came to mind as I prepared to take a picture of Cody.  So, I got up on my tippy toes and tried to get a shot of him.  Of course, I couldn’t be still.

When I saw the shot on my display, I said remarked that the shot wasn’t very good saying, “you’re off-centered and ackward.”  Cody took that statement a bit further stating he knew he was off-centered and ackward.  It became our joke the rest of the evening.
