Thanks, Larry. His Mom thought it was the greatest thing she had ever seen (but that's how mother's are!). Happy shooting, Jay

hi da,

Thanks for the kind comment. You know, you just can't go wrong photographing children! I think if I were truly doing what I wanted more than anything else, it would be sitting behind my camera capturing those fabulous and far-too-fleeting moments of childhood. What the heck AM I doing sitting here behind this desk?! Keep shooting! Jay
