Luke I am glad you did pick this picture for this contest, I know you had so many to choose from and sometimes it is a hard choice. I know you will make it with whatever you decide to do in your life, I have seen how you have changed since you first picked up a camera. You have opened up to the world in a whole new way and that is what I feel a gifted photographer has, that sense of a picture, the eye to capture it just right and the know how to say if it is good or not just what you wanted. This picture is phenomenal and I do love how Emmie is reaching up to Nick on her toes and the lighting, coloring and everything about this picture screams "BEAUTY" and by the way isn't that the hat you were wearing at one time?

Goodness, I had a feeling you would enter this picture. It takes my breath away every time I see it. It's just lovely. The colors and lighting and scenery and, of course, Nick and Emmie make for an absolutely flawless photo. You have to win this one.

Words just can't describe how awesome this is Luke! :)
