We’ve got a maple in the yard that’s on the verge of dropping its last leaves. You know what that means, don’t you?

    That’s a great shot — print it and frame it.

    Thanks, Denny. I’m a sucker for kids jumping into leaves, especially my kid (and my leaves). Should’ve used the fiddy for this, but the Sigma held up all right.

    this shot captures way more than just a cute picture of ava – not that there’s anything wrong with “just” a cute picture of ava. but this is essential childhood, captured. brilliant.

    i didn’t mean to be critical of the ‘cute’ comments either – i wasn’t even paying attention to them – just the shot. sorry if i sounded like some pretentious dork.

    I admit, Kim, that I get a lot of joy out of capturing Ava as she revels in things I used to love doing when I was her age. A hope is that someday she looks at these and understands how much I loved seeing her happy.
