Photo Opportunity

It is often difficult to get a nice picture of multiple children together. I find it is near-impossible to get all 5 of mine to look at the camera and smile at the same time.

For some strange reason, I still try.

Periodically, I make an attempt to get a nice group photo of my children together, with me as the photographer. It is always an adventure. Sometimes, it even borders on torture (for me).

This past weekend, I took the kids to a park and tried a few group shots in between some playground activity. I never got that perfect picture. I did get a few good ones. We also had a lot of fun.

I tried a variety of poses.

The circle of heads....


The slide train....


Sitting on a park bench in birth order....


Holding hands, strolling through the park....


I had better luck with individual photos. I might just have to save the challenge of group pictures for the professional photo studios.
