red slide, pink feet


No real story today. It's G-tot climbing the wrong way up his slide. I just liked this shot when I saw it. The large expanse of red plastic. The wrinkled feet and tiny toes. Baby feet—even when they get too big to fit in the palm of my hand—get me every time. Who am I kidding, I love every part of this child.

This is such a great shot. I can almost reach out and tickle those cute little feet...also shows just how hard he's trying to climb up the wrong way :)

maggie—Don't you just want eat them up?

mia's mama—I think that's why I like it so much. It's like they are trying to climb right out of the frame.

Bare feet are the greatest things in the world. Bare baby feet are just yummy!

I like the composition. Who doesn't love little kiddie feet? I avoid my big guys feet at all cost.

killashandra—He's going to give me a heart attack one of these days.

vp—Nom,nom, nom!

melody—Thanks. Sometimes it's so hard to compose a shot with an active toddler.

mrs mogul—I think it would look nice printed on some heavy rag paper. I may have to check my stash.

I do a family photo - every year, of all of our feet together. I hope to put them all together one day and we'll see those kids feet growing bigger each time. I love it.
