Thanks, Susana and Stan. I appreciate your kind comments.

Stan: I had taken a similar shot of my grandons, Matthew, in Wyoming smelling the flowers and was not really happy with the end shot. Dawson (age 5) wanted a shot with my flowers and I was working on a class assignment for Bryan Peterson's class, so I put the two together. Dawson usually doesn't let met take more than 2-3 shots at a time. For him to pose and do what I asked was remarkable, and he let me get the image I wanted. #556785
