Jeffrey, this is amazing and wonderful. I can't help but wonder the circumstances that had you in their world with your camera. It's a fantastic slice-of-life capture. #1176317

Move over Norman Rockwell, you've got competition!!!! Jeffrey, I don't say this to flatter... but I've been staring at this for quite some time. Your light, your composition, your obvious anticipation of the scene unfolding and the capturing of one of the purest, sweetest moods within such a gruff environment.... I take my hat off to you. This is a grand prize winner in my books! #7969303

You really flattered me so much with your comment. I only perceive things that unfolds to us. As it unfolds, there is the call that says push the shutter release to that everyone will know where it came from. #7969333
