Description
A couple of weeks ago Denise and I went to the Arboretum to take pictures and just goof around in general. We had a wonderful time, and we both ended up with loads of photographs.
She's already posted quite a few images from that day, so I've been looking for ways to present similar shots with a different slant. There IS one thing Denise never did take a picture of, and that was ... Denise!
I got the only MrsRatbag portraits of the day. :D

Oh Tara, this is a wonderful image! Denise, you are one awesome young lady!!!
beautiful portrait. Nice to see Mrs :)
Excellent picture and nice to see what she looks like...and I'm glad you had some much fun
Good to see the Ratbag. 8)
Funny, I look at this and I can her saying: "I've come to read your poet." This is a great portrait. I like the way it's so full of life and it looks like you had a lot of fun. Goofing around and taking photos is always the best way to spend days. Great work.
wonderful portrait!!
Hello there! Nice to meet you! And.... well done on tying down a fellow Rendo member for a photo shot! Not an easy thing to do! A lovely picture, both! Rob.
Beautiful!!WE see Denise is enjoying:))) and has a very nice smile:)))Great ideia!!
Such a beautiful and happy smile.. Aloha
Sweet job of capturing a happy Denise
a beautiful portrait Tara. I mean, it's got more than just the radiant face & presence of one of our best & most subtle artists, and a cherished friend to several souls here; it's also got modulation and subtlety—it's just beautiful. The tones in her face, the play of light & shadow, the tones on her shirt and the way you've allowed highlights to come from her hair...it's just beautiful. It's so nice to see the face & spirit behind a wonderful artist like Denise. Such a terrific smile! Now, am I losing it or did she use this for an avatar for a few days? Right? Something like that? (Why don't I remember, you ask? Because you photography people change your avatars entirely too many times! I think I counted 400,000 the last month alone. I'm proposing fines & prison sentences...though I'll settle for cash & a small european car...we'll talk...) Anyway, a terrific shot as a picture, a terrific capture of a wonderful photographer, and a wonderful tribute to your friend. Voila! (btw...lol, Andrea's comment about hiding behind avatars: Point well taken, except does that mean Andrea's got 4 legs, a big tail and likes to paddle through water? That makes me a foot tall, very thin, with a dynamite head of hair...I'll take it, my real hair has a lot missing on top!)
Lovely lady, excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
