HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ETHAN! Photobucket
I love this image of Ethan's legs surrounded by his little toy cars! Cherish these moments for soon they will be gone! They grow so quickly! The natural lighting and shadows are wonderful and give the capture a great warm feeling! Good decision to convert to B&W! :)
