i heart faces: b&w

This week’s theme for the I Heart Faces photo contest is “b&w” and the judge is Kricia Morris a mom and photographer. Check out her photography site and her blog. I took this picture this fall at our “favorite bench” in our apartment complex. MM had a blast playing with nature and I had a blast photographing it. Initially I had fallen in love with all the colors in the pictures I took this day but I was pleasantly surprised to learn that some of them also looked beautiful in gray scale, like the shot above. For more beautiful images in black and white, be sure to check out the other entries at i heart faces this week.

    It’s cracking me up that his ear is all squished in his hat. I just blogged photos of my son with his funny ears sticking out of his hat today! Little boys are just too darn cute for their own good!

    So focused.
    It makes me think.
    What is he looking at?
    what is going through his mind?
    Love the ear folded over under the cap.

    Love it! It’s so fun to play with black and white. It covers so many flaws. I’ve had somewhat of an addiction for it here lately.

    His eyes still sparkle even in b&w. I didn’t notice the squished ear until I read Andrea’s comment…so cute!

    Is it wrong that what i love most about this picture is the fact that his ear is squished by the hat and all he cares about is the stick?
