Picture not-so-perfect

Fortunately for me, for the most part, I tend to prefer the photos that capture a spontaneous moment, rather than ones that are posed. Saturday night I tried to get a cute shot of Franny and her daddy together. I took 70 pictures (many in very rapid succession) and didn't even get one that could be considered good. Granted, timing is important when taking pictures of a toddler--it was late evening right before bedtime--but in general, it is just hard. I've come to believe, that if I didn't get it in the first five takes, it's a lost cause, and best to just wait for the next opportunity. I should have taken my own advice last night!
