Portrait of Danielle

Until fairly recently on my photographic journey I did not like taking photos of people.
I felt uncomfortable doing so and people did not interest me very much as subjects.
At the beginning of 2011 I began taking photos of people at Renaissance Faires and last year I also began taking portraits.
I now enjoy taking photos of people immensely, and feel very much at ease doing so.

Lovely image of a relaxed, smiling lady.
I have found over the past few years that good candid pictures of people are very rewarding and give you insight into the human condition.

Good for you, Walter. I am still shy about taking photos of people most of the time.
She's lovely and has a beautiful smile.
