Rainy Day Expressions in B & W

It’s been raining off and on all week. Today, it been raining steadily since the wee hours of the morning. Ever try to keep a rambunctious three year old happy and entertained? That’s my world. It’s not always easy though. My grandson, Coleman prefers being outdoors in nature, especially in the woods.

So I decided to snap a few of his many expressions with my iPhone 14 Pro Max in Black and White.
These are all of my grandson, Coleman.
My most favorite subject to capture.
One never knows
the facial expressions
he’ll give you.
Anything from sticking his tongue out … to one showing irritationto smiles …
… to hugs
And loving.
I love the hugs
and the loving.
Decided to play around
with some collages.

What y’all think? What’s your favorite subject to capture on film?

This is our view of the sky as my grandson and I took Chewbacca (the dog) for a walk through the neighborhood behind where we live.
