I Couldn’t Resist

I just couldn’t resist snapping this image of a mom and her children watching the snow goose  migration at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area.  I am always torn about the appropriateness of photographing strangers without their permission.  In my mind I justify that if the people are in a public place, then it’s okay, but I don’t always feel comfortable.  Still, this was such a sweet scene that I couldn’t help but take a quick photo.  The family is likely Mennonite or Amish and all 3 were wearing rubber clogs and trying their best to keep warm on a very windy day.  I processed this with a watercolor effect and added some vignetting.
