Wheeeee!

It’s really hard to get the focus just right on kids who are swinging.

But the good news is that I get lots of practice.

Even after bath and in pajamas, some nights.

Wishing you a swinging day. For more Best Shot Monday, click here.

    I think you’ve focused those right on. Nice job. And there must be some thrill associated with swings and jammies. Happens here, too.

    I think you managed to capture it pretty well, cuz these pictures are cute. And swinging in your pajamas must be a treat that’s hard to beat.

    You did it! It is hard to get well-focussed pictures on the swing, but you nailed it! I’d love to know your settings??

    Is will too big now to say he’s gorgeous? Cuz he is.
