I think today's dark and cloudy weather is getting to me. This started out as a happy sunny full color photo (from the same picnic series I posted yesterday) and wound up as this much more moody black and white image instead.
.
As long as it has though, and conveniently on a nearly-Monday at that, I figured it was a great opportunity to jump on the Monochrome Monday bandwagon.

*Boing* (that was me jumping) Good that this is virtual space, I suspect that any real life jumping would involve a lot more "oofs" and "thuds" and "owws!" than boings...

That is a beautiful portrait very well made with a perfect depth of field.
You are very welcome on the bandwagon.
Lovely. Your daughter and the handling of the imagery.
Off, thud, wow! is more like it. Perfect mood. Just beautiful.
Very incredible photo, Robin! I like how you've softened the background to further emphasize Maya as the subject. Somehow the details are just stronger in monochrome. I'm so glad you've joined the Monochrome Maniacs!
Wonderful portrait. The intensity shines through.
The more pictures of yours that I see, the more I want to see!!!
Beautiful portrait, I hope to see more mono pics.
I love this shot. Perfect for monochrome and great title.
Most of the time, before I log onto a blog, I have a program that lets me look at the most recent posts in a blog all at once... So, Maya's monochrome and the colored one from your last post were side by side. It was incredible, poignant, and thought provoking to see them side by side... Really beautiful Robin. Hope at some point to see if you play around with the "wings" idea...
Beautiful child!
Oh, what a beautiful, natural shot. Also love the name of your blog ;-)
Hi! Robin,

I adore all of your pictures - I'd love to have half your skills, so I'll let the pros comment and say what I always say... Beautiful!
That's a wonderful picture Robin, for an entry to Monochrome Maniacs but also as an intense expression of feeling. She's so natural, delicate.
No Boing! or thuds here at all.
What a delightful portrait of your child deep in thought! You can feel the moment!
This is a very nice black and white !
Have a great week !
Wow, I love it! Robin, you are very good photographer. Looks like a fun day at the park!
Very nice shot of your daughter, timeless. Good job.
Nice portrait ...
What a magnificent picture, Robin. Great job. :-)
Her face does look very thoughtful in this shot...
Great shot, Robin! I like the dark halo around her as well. :)
