silhouettes
It’s silhouette week at I ♥ Faces! I really like silhouettes, and I don’t look for opportunities to shoot them nearly enough. Hopefully this summer I’ll find some more. This one is from two years ago of my sister-in-law’s family during a fabulous Oregon coast vacation. It makes me happy!

As a Fix-it Friday contributor, I’m not eligible to win, just to play along!

Yes, it did! The “shoot” was completely unplanned. But when the sky put on this show of color, I knew I had to try for some silhouettes. Thankfully, they were very good sports and acted quickly!
