Toad

... well not really. That was the plan. Two nights in a row a toad came visiting the backdoor. Not the third night as I had anticipated. I hadn't made any pictures during the day apart from this one in the morning of the children all on the lap of their daddy.

There´s something very captivating about the edit here, love that sense of movement

[Creative Fool]

Very unique shot - love the sense of wonder they all have!

[Louise & Ken]

Using @susale word "captivating", I think part of the reason is that it's like an image from the late 1800's...someone always inadvertently ends up moving! Your children certainly have that timeless, "old-fashioned" beauty about them! It's so nice to meet their daddy now as well!

[Jan Rose]

Great shot, it looks like a really old photo,
