  1. Heaven indeed…

    I have a favorite shot of my then-6-month-old baby boy pondering a bubble. He’s now 11…and I look at the wonder in his eyes every day!

    Beautiful — thank you for sharing.

  11. It is a very nice picture. Shows the innocence of childhood. As people grow up they lose this innocence bit by bit. That is the biggest tragedy.

  38. How cute!:)

  39. Got to love that shallow depth of field <3, nicely executed… You seem to have a gift for this stuff :], your son [is that your son?] must be very lucky seeing as art can be very nurturing to the self and whoever we share our art with… I saw this documentary called Discover The Gift and it opened my eyes to my own gift, which happens to be an 'eye' for visual arts, such as photography, film, and the imaginative aspect of screenwriting. I wanted to share my gratitude, and maybe one day my art with you! I'm still growing as an artist. Have you heard of Discover the Gift? I definitely recommend it http://on.fb.me/kVoAQo
