This isn’t my finest hour when it comes to taking pictures. In fact I was somewhat off my game its almost as all the things I am learning in my photography class has meant that I can’t take one good photo!

Rather than worrying about something or trying to get him to change his mind. After all some of the best lessons are learnt through determination.
