The first shot today is a reference shot only. It scanned in so poorly this morning, not sharp at all. The shot for today, the bottom one, was scanned in on my first copy/scanner/faxer/printer before it died.
Last summer, on a very warm evening, we were out shooting these staged shots (the top photo) when my oldest and youngest daughters started goofing around. That’s the bottom photo. The top photo would have been fun, but the background was too busy. My daughter is sitting on the roots from the first of 12 trees that fell around and on the house during hurricane Isabel. I was testing out the dof on my lens, shooting at various stops. This is the one that netted me the result I wanted. After we were done, the ice cream was melting and my youngest ran up behind her big sister to try to steal the cone. That’s when I got the bottom photo.
When we were done, they went inside to play video games with their other sister and their father and I did the dishes. The boys watched a movie.

What a great capture of funloving sisters. Do they get along? It looks as if they do here.
Don't you dare go digital. If you can get results like these onto a PC without working them afterwards you have no reason to leave film.
I *love* the second shot. It's so full of fun and life! I hope you have this blown up and hanging on your wall!
Donncha
These are lovely.
Oh, those turned out great. They look very happy.
their expression are wonderful!
Always will be a sucker for shots like these. They had loads of fun by the looks of things. Awwwwww. I still mavel at the fact you use film. Wow. I could never ever do that. :)
Beautiful shots, beautiful girls!!! Love your work.
Lovely expressions, moment well captured.
Fun times. The tones look very good, and the glowing softness (but still with detail) is very appealing. Nice shots.
Beautiful B&Ws micki! You have such a wonderful eye for portraiture, wether it be candid or posed, they always come out wonderful.
i like the 2nd shot.. very well composed, perfect moment, great exposure! ;p
beautiful pictures. i really lovethem:-) now i have something special on my page. come and see!
They have very likeable faces, and the ice cream has very good aspect.
Typical kodak moments.
Love the bottom photo -- the tones and lighting are lovely.
Yay for ice cream. Looks like you all had a great time.
I like the second one. It's a great candid shot.
Some lovely candid shots. Good one.
awwwwww...so much fun! I absolutely love the subject and story being the picture
That second shot is such a keeper - they'll both look back on it in twenty years and smile.
Oustanding shots Micki.
nice shot Micki
Haha, even if they're are staged or set up, or however the correct term would be; they are so full of dynamic, smiles and laughter. A very happy shot. :)
Nice B&W's. We have quite a discussion here on local photography forums and scanned negatives really do need some sharpening to get the best out of them.
I just love your family photos, your kids are so happy and energetic :)
I like both of them, smiling smiling :)
Great shots Micki.
beautiful capture...really cute shot:-))
Both are lovely playful photos. Good kids.
These are memory pictures. I am craving ice cream now...
I like them both, these photos are alive ! Perhaps the first one is a bit too "white" for me (the t-shirt). Anyway that a good job
Great fun looking shoots.
Perfect moments in time you captured. :)
Reminds me of all the fun times me & my sister have had.
Great captures of a moment in time. You preserved the memories well. Regards.
This is just a wonderful series! I love the look and feel you took with this. Great tones.
Love the second photo! The girls have beautiful smiles and you've really caught the decisive moment here.
