Ice Cream!


We all went down to the beach where Kathy and I go for Dunkin' on Tuesdays.  They have a swimming pool and Vivian and Amy have been there earlier this week with Kathy.  She said that I wouldn't believe what a great swimmer Vivian is, so I came along on this trip and brought my camera.  When I arrived in a separate car, I caught up with these two walking away after buying an ice cream cone for Vivian.  Can you tell that she is thrilled?  I did a sequence of photographs showing Amy getting the cone from the man in the truck and then I continued to follow them as they walked toward me.  This photo is the best, and I had no idea that I also captured the ice cream man watching them walk away!  Never noticed him while shooting.


Of course I needed a close up!

I love the close up showing how pleased she is with her ice cream cone. :-)

Great smile on the ice cream man watching a grandfather taking photos of his daughter and granddaughter. Vivian looks so happy with her ice cream cone. Brings back so many good memories of beach days! Betsey

Photojournalism at it's best! Love this candid shot of Amy with Vivian walking away from the ice truck with her tall cone of ice cream. What really makes the shot is the smiling vendor leaning out of the truck window and looking towards them. I'm not sure who is the happiest one of the three? That's the magic of this shot!
