I ♥ Faces -- "Orange"

Wow, it's been a while since I've been here! In case you hadn't figured it out already, I was not able to keep up with my Project 366... I kept taking pictures for quite a while, intending to take at least 7 pictures per week (though maybe not every day) and catch up on posting. I did pretty good with my picture taking for a few months, but eventually I decided I was so far behind on my posting that it was not going to happen. Oh well. I learned a lot in those first few months of making myself pick up the camera every day, and for that I am grateful! So I'd say my Project 366 accomplished my main goal (of challenging myself to grow as a photographer) after all. :-)

But anyway, the reason I've returned is to participate once again in the I Heart Faces challenge for this month. I've also been meaning to participate in these more often, but let's just say... the last several months have been crazy. But here I am back again... we'll see how it goes!


The theme for this month is "orange." I chose this picture, taken of a friend and her daughter on a little day trip we took to the beach this summer. The two lovely ladies are wearing orange, but what I loved so much about this picture was the golden-orange sunlight filtering through in the background. I was SO thrilled with the lighting and how the colors turned out in this picture! Not to mention, my subjects just happened to be both beautiful and adorable. :-)
