cute kids

I'm one of those people who don't see the human being very well photographically. I like images of people but I don't take good pictures of them. I take excellent pictures of girls at the beach and blading on the boardwalk but that is a different idea to me. Anyway, I do think that children make good subjects. But the poses showing the Kodak Moment are great but seldom happen unless the kid is naturally camera aware. My all time favorite is the 3 girl scouts selling cookies. "Got Milk"? The redhead and the latina are adorable. Oh and the other one with the little 3 year old with the chocolate frosting expertly smeared around her face. Those eyes are so beautiful. But most people respond to kid pictures. I think it is genetic in nature. Young animals have to be cute to survive. Young animals get away with actions that would cause viscious behavior between older animals. Just my view but it's what I see. And some people are just good at photographing kids. Being in the PP of A I feel that women seem to excell at producing the good but cliched pictures of kids. I'd like to be able to do it. James
