Blinded by the sun

Have you ever taken a really horrible picture, due to lighting, movement, or some other factor, but then it became one of your favorites, probably due to whatever the mistake it was that you made while taking it?

This is one of those pictures.

Overexposed beyond belief, yet I love it (except, I need to play with the coloring a bit – too much pink)… Little Dude has that look of being just-out-of-reach, and the lighting suits that look.

He was trying to climb the monkey bars at the park, when I snapped this, so part of me was sad that he is growing so quickly and is rapidly moving just outside my reach in so many ways…

    I must say he looks absolutely brilliant. :)

    So cute. Some of my favorite pictures of Ben are blurry. To me, they catch him in motion, and he’s always moving. That’s how I’ll remember him at this age. The kind of kid who won’t sit still to have a picture taken.

    That picture (actually all pictures) is just too adorable. You have such a beautiful little boy.

    It is a great picture!! … I can’t believe he keeps the sun glasses on. Mine never did when they were that little.
