"A Little Bit Yorkshire"

Bradley Shawn  Rabon

"A Little Bit Yorkshire"

As I walked into our living room, I saw my two sons sitting on the settee (couch) watching children’s television. Sitting there with a flat cap on, he looked as yorkshire as they come. I love the expression on his face, so full of wonder and excitement. This was the first time he sat and watched television with his brother.

    Shawn, they’re so adorable!! Is that a foot in there? It doesn’t look like it belongs to one of those two… or you have one child with two right hands! LOL!

  • Bradley Shawn ... replied

    Thank you so very much Johanne! Yes that is my son Joseph’s foot. He sits cross legged often. He also likes playing with his toes whilst he watches TV.

    Whose hand is grabbing a foot in the middle? It can’t be the boy’s in the front cause his right hand is in his mouth. It can’t be the boy’s in the background either cause his left hand is in his mouth too. Is there any other little brother hiding? The foot must be his father’s. Very CUTE boys!!

  • Bradley Shawn ... replied

    It is actually my son Joseph (in the background) he has is legs crossed and he is holding his foot while he watches the TV. lol The foot is definitely not mine. Thank you for the compliment.

  • danielch

    danielch

    the shot is wonderful. It will be even better if the foot was not there.

    Excellent photo of your “Yorkshire Boys”, I need to get myself a cap like that.

  • Bradley Shawn ... replied

    LOL! Thank you my dear friend, and thank you greatly for the feature. I am very honoured. Take great care my friend. I left the group and rejoined so that I have a clean slate to submit my work. I know it meant losing all the work I have submitted before, but it has been a while and all that work was long down the line. If I choose I can re submit something later. I have plenty more I want to share anyway. Speak to you soon!

Is this the first time for you.? Your work is so beautiful ..it is well deserved…take care xx

  • Bradley Shawn ... replied

    Thank you so very much Margaret! I really appreciate the compliment. I love photographing my kids- they have such wonderful expressions. My wife is from Yorkshire so this is a particularly special shot to me. I think the home page feature with this shot was some time back, and yes it is a great feeling. I think I have had about 3 or 4 home page features in my time here. Stay on here long enough and you will have loads with your good work. Thank you again my friend.

    aww, what a wonderful capture, I love it! Ey oop lad! (I’m from Yorkshire LOL). Congrats on your feature :o)

  • Bradley Shawn ... replied

    Thank you so very much. I really appreciate it. My wife is from Barnsley so the kids are part Yorkshire and part Texan… What a combination ehhh? I used to live in Hull.. I was there 5 years as a youth worker. I lived in Marfleet and my wife was a teacher on the Bransholme estate, so I know Hull quite well. Hope to speak to you soon.
