It shouldn't really be that hard should it?
"Can you sprinkle some leaves over his head please? It'll be a fabulous Autumn photo!" said I to Mr. TBaM last weekend at Lacock Abbey.
Oh dear!
Never mind, it was good fun even if I didn't end up with the perfect 'money shot'. Although, bottom middle isn't too bad is it?

It certainly looks like it was a lot of fun even if you didn't quite get the shot you were after. Love the photos π
Sara (@mumturnedmom) says
Brilliant, these things always seem like a good idea, and then 100 photos later you still haven't quite got the shot. Although, some of these ones are great – the expressions are fabulous π #CountryKids

Oh I love them all! They are natural looking and yes it really is that hard to do! Capturing leaves, expression and focus all at that crucial moment is far from easy. I've not managed one of these this year and now the leaves are ringing wet on the farm. Thanks for sharing your fun on Country Kids
Kriss MacDonald says
Not to worry – these photos worked brilliantly as they're so natural and you've captured the Boy's joy and…frustration!

Baha! I love the top right – just dump a shed load over his head shot! All worth it in the end! Did you see my not that expertly made leaf throwing gif?!
Karen says
Aaahhh just adorable. Rosie loves doing this but not on demand so we often miss the shot. Sorry I've slipped up on my project 365, trying to go back & do a photo for each week. Watch this space x
Karen (@karenjwhitlock) says

Bottom middle is pretty good! Looks like he was having a ball.
Leckie says
I love the middle left. Though you can't see any leaves… oh well, looks like a fun day anyway.
