The Explorer

Sometimes, the best pictures we take are those that are snapped on the spur of the moment. As a photographer, my instinct is to search out or set up pictures, taking my time, making sure the time of day and light is just right, checking exposure to make sure I get the shot, testing different compositions and angles. And then there's serendiptous moments like these, where I just grab the camera and shoot as fast as I can, because these moments don't last! Witness Princess Cupcake all geared up for an expedition in the wilds of our back yard. I looked out the window, and there she was, deep in adventure mode!
