I haven't done much photographology of late. However, I took this image last Friday as my eldest-daughter-caterer prepared her delicacies for her younger sister's upcoming-wedding-kitchen-tea shindig, which took place yesterday.

I hope it all went well at the event. Regarding this photo, it is technically good but I feel it lacks context e.g. a reaching hand just about to grab the candy...I also like the blurred figure behind, perhaps the problem is that is too blurred to tell the story

It is very blurred due to F1.6.

Maybe it’s just me but given the choice of taking a photo of a pop stick or the blonde, I do know what I would have done - BUT, I do like this photo and the context :up:

Chris, I know you have photographed female relatives/friends. It is a pastime fraught with peril. It is far easier to capture the pop stick than obtaining permission to capture the blonde daughter!
