As part of my photo blog updation, today I was making some tonal adjustments to a few pictures I shot during a trip to Thirumayam. During the much-anticipated visit of roommate to my parents’ place a month or so ago, we planned a visit to the Chettiar palace (which did’nt happen) and a quickie to the Thirumayam fort (which did). But this post is not about the trip. It is about a little girl I saw at Thirumayam.
As we neared the fort we saw a group of kids playing. Amongst them was this enthu cutlet of a little girl ! Oh boy, was’nt she the boss of the gang! And mind you, she was the tiniest of the bunch of tots hanging around at the fort entrance!
I had set the ISO at max for an earlier shot and forgot to dial back the right ISO. And before I even noticed that the pictures were slightly grainy the little girl had moved on with life. I still love these pictures for her photogenic face & lovely smile (not to mention her healthy teeth and attractive eyes) .
Thankfully there are still a few things that are’nt dependent on the right ISO :o)
This is her..
A part of the gang that she leads..
It did take a loooong time to make her get that my camera does not focus at a distance of 1mm :))
In how many ways can YOU smile ?

That their pictures could be seen as soon as it was taken, got them sooo excited.. So, the digital camera I guess ! However, chocolates could have done the trick too :)
