[iheartfaces: O So Silly.]

My hubby voted for this one ... 

You know - I don't know about the other photographers, but I sometimes find these themes really tricky.  The theme this week is "O So Silly".  So I asked him ... "this one, or this one ... or maybe this one?"

He chose this one ... "It's the silliest.  By far."

Now he's not a photographer ... he's not looking for clarity or perception.   He wasn't looking for depth of field or amount of contrast.

He just thought it was silly.

So ... here's my entry.  Meet Eli.  The fun-nest, craziest, bravest little guy I know *grin*.


I couldn't set this shot up ... this was a "get-it-NOW" kind of a moment ... And that cricket?  He was completely unharmed and happily went on his merry way after Eli's mom almost had a heart attack *grin*.

For other silly entries check out the I Heart Faces site HERE.


Thank you so much to all of you who leave comments ... I read them all :-).

  5. Oh my goodness! No one else will have a photo that silly! I love it (but I am now a little afraid of what tricks my 1 yr old little boy may pull down the road!)
