Portraits of People
Portrait photography is always fun, but it can also be a challenge if the people you are photographing are not cooperating with you. You all have submitted some great shots for this one. I want to thank you all for participating. I am trying to get this post out so I can start getting packed for my trip to Vegas in the morning. Thanks again for all the participation in this one. You all did great.
