~~Brothers~~

Uploaded: September 13, 2005

Description


B is for the bond that can never be taken away.
R is for the refuge that you have to me each day.
O is for the oath that we will always remain as friends.
T is for the truth upon which everything depends.
H is for the honor it is to be your brother.
E is for encouragement that we give to one another.
R is for the road that we have traveled down so far.
S is for security, for when I need you, there you are.

This I took of Dakotah & Matthew on a different trip to Bear Lake. I used the character filter from VP & added the poster edges effect.

Alisha, this is such an emotion filled image that these brothers will treasure forever! I'm curious as to the significance of the red ribbon (??) held in the younger brother's hand... #1836013
