From the heart

I took this photo back in March.  I hadn't ever wanted to scrap it.  I didn't think I'd ever be able to.  However, the photo has stuck in my mind, as some photos do, and right now, it says everything about how we're feeling, and more.

  6. Alz, this is simply stunning. The photo of GB and Max says so much of the emotion you are both feeling at this time. The colours used make the emotion more evident.
