It was late afternoon, almost dark, light was working against us. Although fuzzy, this photo captures a tender moment between a Grandpa & Grandson. Grandpa was encouraging a little stomping in a snow pile; stalling so that Santa's helpers could shop for this little guy. If you sit back, squint, and imagine, likely you can imagine yourself in that little red jacket bursting with energy, hanging out with a grandparent, waiting for Santa to arrive.
Only three more days folks! Whether you are a big box store kind of person or a lover of one of a kind shops, Greensboro has plenty places for last minute Christmas shopping.
If they'll accept a blurry image, we're offering this one up to the Ruby Tuesday gang!
Oh what a capture! This is my very favorite kind of photo. It really did bring tears to my eyes.
Great capture of the season and the emotion.

Grandpa and grandson,
buddies forever—even
in bitter weather!
My Ruby Tuesday

It looks like a watercolor. I can feel the warmth of the two bonding.

LOVE IT! Hubby took some pics of Christmas lights, which came out blurry, but I like them anyway! I like your pic anyway, too! Cute!

So sweet. I know the small child is quivering from anticipation, the grandfather from exhaustion! Aren't the best memories of our lives a little blurry, maybe from tears of joy borne of looking back.
