The connection between a child and a parent is fading more and more in a time where everybody is so busy, and especially in a city like London that never stops. This Photograph represent that sweet time that a kid have when the mum is around him, it shows happiness and human connection. It was taken in a little french cafe in Clapham North in a sunny spring day. I guess the subject itself strictly relates to the theme.

I took this photo of my daughter & son at Jones Beach on Long Island. I thought it captured a sweet moment between siblings & the joy/novelty of being at the beach in April (after a long western NY winter).

Cante, Baile, Celebre! translates to Sing, Dance, Celebrate! From 1 lbs. 11 oz. (and 50% chance of surviving) at birth, to 21 lbs. 24 months later, Isabella celebrates life. The picture reminds my family and I to sing and dance like no one is watching and to savor each day.

Happy kids of Satkhira.

Hadley and Amira are celebrating spring at the park after a very long winter.

This was taken in a North Alabama cave this past spring. My friend here is spinning burning steel wool which is making the sparks. I loved the combination of the natural light beams coming from an opening & the sparks.

My wife and I were in Guangdong China, adopting our daughter. We were visiting a country side village and these two girls were following our group. Our guide said that it may have been the first time that they had seen Americans.

These little girls portray the season splendidly at the sun perdition.

It doesn't happen very often. Celebrating Holi Hindu Festival of Colour in snowing London.

This was taken on the Hudson River near Barrytown, NY during this unusually cold winter. Ice boats from the Hudson River Ice Yacht Club were sailing up and down 20 miles of the river giving rides to the hundreds of people who ventured out there.

Just two pals! I love how I got them both looking at the camera the same time.

Beautiful Irish landscape in a typical weather.

This is a picture of my son, Jeremy, the day after we visited a local festival. He won his 'eye glasses' playing a game. In the morning he also wanted peanut butter on his waffles.

My son Rhett is very affectionate and wants to hug everyone, if they want to or not! His victim here -- a very special young neighbor of ours. I love the honest expressions and interaction in this photo. Among those that I have taken, it's one of my favorites! I used Kodak 200 print film on full auto in my Canon Elan IIe SLR.

I took this photograph of my husband and daughter when we were visiting Paris. It was taken in front of the Notre Dame and the bells were chiming when I took this photo of them feeding birds. What a moment!

It is a once a month Saturday ritual - Dad and Son go to the barber for a haircut. This was the first time that my four-year old sat in the chair by himself. You can see he was a bit unsure of the whole thing!

This is a quirky photo of my husband and myself on holiday in France. We could not get an English-speaking person to take our picture, so we decided to take a selfie . . and it came out great! It was taken at one of the many cobble stoned villages in the Provencial south.

I was testing my camera the other day and my daughter volunteered to be my "subject". I took this close up of her with her favorite stuffed animal and I just adore the way her eyes look in this photo.

I just love the expression on his face. From "pooie on you" to laughing. This is my grandson, and I got a whole series of great expressions of him on that day. Taken last March in his dining area. He was 1 1/2 yrs old at the time.

I took this candid picture of my daughter and a friend's dog -- who were both resting after a few "hours" of play during the holidays.

our grandson got a puzzle on his 3rd birthday, which he immediately started to put together

Capturing moments with my great nephew

Isn?t this a million-dollar smile?! A group of us visiting Cuba were on our way from Trinidad to Havana and stopped at a roadside lunch area. This fellow was part of one of the many excellent bands that seem to be on every corner in Cuba!
