Lovely as always, LaRee. I love the way the plants sort of swirl around the boy, it gives quite the sense of movement to an otherwise static scene. Nice spotting and shooting! Julie

Beautiful! Love how the flowers surround the boy!

Wow, look at all those poppies! Mine are only about 3 inches high here in The Antelope Valley! Great shot!

Wonderful shot LaRee :o)

Thank you all for your comments. It was very windy and the flowers were blowing. Having my son jump in the middle seemed fitting. But I don't like a posed shot so I grab what I can. Which is why we have the top of his head and not his eyes. ;)

How adorable. Cherish.

Linda commented on April 10, 2007 09:37:

Beautiful flowers and a very nice shot.

Another great shot LaRee. No fair using the California poppies and the handsome young man! It will be weeks before I see any poppies here! Well done again.

Linn Smith commented on April 10, 2007 20:01:

Your son's eyes and the way his hands cross adds to the overall dynamic nature of this photo! It is a great capture and I commend you for such a beautiful example of "your world" in wonderful San Diego.

This shot is absolutely fantastic LaRee!

Bev Way commented on April 13, 2007 11:06:

Great shot, LaRee, your son is too beautiful, I though it was a girl until I read some of your crits!!!

Thank you Linda, Bob, Linn, Jimbob and Bev. Yeah Bob, my little guy here has become my lucky charm in photos. ;) Especially when you can see his eyes. Those shots are getting harder to capture as he gets older though.
