Spinning

An attempt to capture the face of a child in the midst of the exhilarating experience of spinning, a favorite pass time of most all children.

My dad got the idea from a picture he saw on one of his photography websites so, Steven thought it would be fun to try it out. Our first attempt was with me spinning Alice with Steven standing directly behind me, doing his very best to try and keep up, but failing miserably. Seeing his brother fail, Daniel decides to step in and show Steven how it is done, unfortunately for him his pride was smashed and he did just as bad. Next up, ME, it can't be that hard (seriously, can it?) all you have to do is start a little before the actual spinner, it's all about being one step ahead. HA, or so I thought, after Annie was whacked in the head a few times with the camera we gave up that whole process and decided to re-hash our plans. We came up with a fool-proof plan...Hop on the back of the spinner and snap away...

The result: One worn-out and dizzy spinner, one hysterical and sore photographer, three laughing bystanders (caught on camera) and some amazing pictures to treasure for a lifetime!

Ali would do this all day long if given the option

Marybeth's face says it all!
