i was playing at the camera shop yesterday. printing pictures in the back of the store. talking to all the men that work there. it's one of those places i feel so comfortable in. they know me since i visit often. sometimes all i have are questions but they don't mind that all. and if i have some dust that needs to be blown out of my camera. well they love doing that for me. anyhow. after i was done printing my photos i showed this one to keith and he said he didn't realize i was scanning old photos onto cd's and printing them. i said i wasn't. i told him this was from a shoot a few weeks ago.
he said the old~soft~dreamy look of the photo was fantastic.
just beautiful and had obviously fooled him.
and
honestly
that's the only compliment i need this week
*
now granted
if anyone tells me that my hair {that i hate} looks nice
or
comments on my new skinny legged jeans which i'm not 100% sure a 46 year old mom should even be wearing in the first place
i'll take those
too
but
the photo compliment
from a photographer
at the camera store
who has seen millions of photos and has never said anything before to me about my photos
~we usually talk cameras~
kind of put me over the moon
~
i'll come back down to earth tomorrow
probably

That is high praise!

LOL... I don't know about your hair cause I can't see it from here, BUT... I'm wearing those skinny jeans at 45... so, hush, girl. We can wear them. :-) And I already know you're skinny enough to look good in them. I'm almost skinny enough, but that's good enough for me. I get them a size too big so they aren't skin tight.
ReplyDeletewell deserved, lovely one ! Can see your heart smiling from here !
ReplyDeleteI love how a compliment like that can lift you up. Revel in it.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more...with him and also you.
ReplyDeleteIt takes so little to give someone a genuine compliment...that makes your heart sing.
Now about the skinny jeans...you GO Girl!
And you whole heartedly deserved that compliment! A truly gorgeous picture.
ReplyDeleteYeah for you! What a great compliment.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm guessing you totally rock the skinny jeans too :-)
Happy weekend, jj
it IS beautiful ..and so are you !!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photograph. The man definitely knows what he's talking about!
ReplyDeleteYay! He was right, it is perfect.
ReplyDeleteKeep soaring! You deserve it…
ReplyDeleteFantastic photo! The praise was well-deserved.
