"All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt."— Susan Sontag

Day Two Hundred Forty One 2011
Grandpeeps Elijah and Shelby allowed me to get in their faces today with my little macro lens and take pictures of their beautiful blue eyes. Elijah's (top pic) pupil was dilated because we were inside with low light which made for a slower shutter speed. I took Shelby outside into the sunlight (bottom pic) and got a different effect. They were very patient with their crazy picture taking granny. Thanks, Kids! Maybe next time I'll try for some ears....
Love the pupil dilation there on Elijah! :) Cool!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Macro photography rocks!
