Julie,
LOVE the shots with the children. Absolutely adore the last shot with the color-ized birds and the washed out child's colorization.
I seldom see real affection between people and birds but these are very special in that regard. The boy adores them and they clearly adore him.
Lovely, lovely images. Technically outstanding and emotionally superior to anything I've seen in this genre. You do nice work, Julie. Or have I mentioned that before?
Jim
