Being the Daddy of three boys, I’m bound to be . . . just a little bit.

It’s probably one of the best Children photographs I have seen here on RedBibble, it really is that good. Have you ever thought about getting it published in magazines or entering it in photo contests or anything Irene.

Tina Hogg, 4 months ago

Here’s 802! I don’t usually comment on photos of children (personal reasons, tho’ nothing weird!),but as you mentioned your excitement about the number of comments, here I am!
This is so beautiful, and I love the soft framing. You must be very proud of both your grandchildren, and this portrait of them

Irene Burdell in reply to Tina Hogg’s comment, 4 months ago

Thank you so much Tina , I love this picture myself and when I took it it was in colour and bigger ,I cropped gave it a sepia tone and framing and it appeared as a portrait , I was really surprised how nice it looked . I don’t relaly like putting childrens pictures on for obvious reasons and i would never post anything unless they were fully clothed . Plus I asked my son and daughter in law first before i posted it .I have a couple on but I certainly wouldn’t flood my portfolio with them.
