This is part of my “red-shirt” series. Different angles taken on the same day in front of the same window. Yesterday’s daily pic was shot with the wide end of my lens, resulting in a slightly distorted view of my subject; the “big-nose” effect if you will. For this shot, I used a longer focal length, so my child doesn’t look like a clown anymore. I thought it was interesting that her reflection happened to be in front of a tree through the window, which makes it more visible. Can you see it?

I can’t believe how quickly she’s growing. It seems like only yesterday she was lying on a pillow on top of my coffee table waving her arms and legs in the air.
