This is the second of three 'shots from the shower' that I'm going to be putting up and in some ways this is my favourite. Of the three I think that tomorrow's is probably the best photograph, at least in my opinion, but this one is definitely the most fun :-)

This is absolutely adorable, David. :) Nice composition and great expressions.

comment by Dana Ross Martin at 12:02 AM (GMT) on 6 March, 2005

Yes, I agree with everyone else - GREAT PICTURE!
And, see, you didnt have to go out looking for it - braving the elements - leaving the house. It was there all the time - right under your nose (er. . . in your shower) Kudos!

comment by Brad at 12:11 AM (GMT) on 6 March, 2005

Extremely cute picture. I to 'snorted' when I first saw this. To only be a kid again...

comment by kate at 12:27 AM (GMT) on 6 March, 2005

just be sure to train your youngest- ok for shower doors: not ok for frozen flag poles. :)))))

comment by armin at 10:55 PM (GMT) on 15 March, 2005

every time I visit chromasia , I click on this photo and I try to imagin how would the photograph be if the focus point was on the eye of the kid(?). it probably was like this: blury fingers and water drops , a meaningful smile and two beautiful eyes ful of joy.
any way, I think you have touch the kids world very well because every single frame of your kids photographs says so.

comment by Wirjo at 07:32 AM (GMT) on 16 March, 2005

Awesome photograph .... beautiful colours...
