If you ever feel like life is speeding by you or your kids are growing too quickly, here's a photography trick for you, dragging the shutter (or the notion of using a longer exposure). The technique is useful for capturing motion (in sports or waterfalls) or to replicate the effects of age on your memories and results in blurred photos depicting motion. Put another way, it slows the camera down so it's like taking video except all the motion is burned onto a single frame.
If however, the children are driving you crazy, then this photography tip does nothing to speed their development. ... and however tempting it might be to throw yourself in the water, it's not deep enough - not that I tried.
I think God went out of His way to make children cute for the very reason that we have adorable faces to look at when we're on the edge. Cheerio.
Technical Photography Tips: 1/20 sec at f8, ISO 80. This is the lowest ISO and smallest aperture allowed on a Canon G9 point and shoot and with a 1/20 exposure permits reasonably sharp children (who were surprisingly still) and a nice blur of the waterfall. With a subtle fill flash (and a little Lightroom action), the children remain well lit relative to the sun reflecting off the waterfall.
