I experimented with a few photos in low light a couple of afternoons ago, and I am so happy that I did. Brian Andreas was right when he said, “Time stands still in moments that look suspiciously like ordinary life”.
This picture is far from perfect. But for me? Beautiful. This is exactly what those in-between moments of our days look like.
Already I look at this photo and I tear up. These days won’t last forever. I know that in the blink of an eye, those precious little hands won’t be tiny anymore. Those beautiful white-blonde curls are going to darken. That car won’t be his favourite toy, and that borderline too-big shirt is going to be too small within a month.
But this moment? It’s right here, forever.
And that makes me glad.
