Day (40) of 365

Can you see the that little baldy spot on Aqilah’s forehead? I shall explain coz I don’t think that I have. In Islam, there is this religious doings for newborn baby called Aqiqah. It basically means to celebrate for the newborn baby by slaughtering lambs or cows and then to shave the baby’s head clean. Now what happened was that the one that was supposed to shave my niece’s hair was a religious man who happened to be old. As he was cutting the hair, we could see that the hand was trembling!… we could not let anything happen to the baby so we stopped it and thought that it should be done later :D.

It is pretty difficult to have my niece look directly into the camera so candid is the way to go!. I always experiment with many angles and see which one looks more natural and distinctive.

Camera settings: ISO 800 | 24-105@105mm | f/4.0 | 1/30 sec.
