Very nice double portrait and a good light!

What a wonderful shot- of course you couldn't find more adorable subjects - I love the sense of expectation on their faces - just great - thanks for sharing it with us-

I love the simple joy of it!

Shining faces with those unforced smiles... Rare in the neighborhood...

This picture comes from another era far removed from the complexities of contemporary life. It seems to spring from a simpler time when things weren't as laden with associations and freighted down with suspicions as they are today. This may have been taken just last week for all I know but the spirit that animates the picture, the innocent trust and sweetness that lights it, has largely vanished, reduced to an occasional flickering glow in the gathering darkness. In that sense, this is a rare picture indeed. But if anyone can find and capture that sense that binds us all together, it's you, Carlos. Anyone who has taken the time to look through your portfolio would attest to that. As to what I said previously, I can't remember, but I would guess it's about the same as what I've said this time round.

Agree to Bulent and Jack: their innocent, honest and unconditional smiling gazes seem to be something rare and lost in our world...

 

thank you boys and girl. I really appreciate your visits and words. It’s very true we old guys recognize sweet innocence when we see it – seems to simultaneously break your heart and fill it with hope.

 

Such beautiful, innocent and happy children! When was this taken? Very good portrait of these two. Thank you for sharing. :)
