And then sometimes, there’s a special photo. A happy accident? It’s not one thing, it’s not another. What is it? I call it art.

I took this shot a while ago and I’ve been playing with it off and on. I like this version best of all the various things I tried to do with it. Still, there are more things yet to try. Lots. I love the motion, the movement of the hair, the colors, the misty look on her face. Someday I’ll make it perfect.

A portrait lens at work to catch a moment of joy. With a few special effect just because.
