That last picture reminds me of a movie I saw in the last couple of years. Hmmm, let me think. Oh, I know! It was this romantic flick my wife just LOVES called Twilight where Edward and Bella were in a field together, just staring into each others eyes. Yeah, that’s it.

Seriously, these are great shots. I am impressed!ReplyCancel
