Oooooh!!! Awwwww!!! This is an awesome capture. It put a smile on my face (which has been difficult to do lately) and warmed my heart.You've captured a tender moment, with a long lens, thrown out the background, composed the image nicely and patiently. It is absolutely awesome and a deserved winner and story teller. #6871117
