AliDar said at 7:23 p.m. on Oct 3, 2008: ... oh, what is that thing you got in your hands, uncle? oh, but Grandma is kissing me again! And you're smiling at me. Life is just so wonderful! ... but I'll figure it out what you're doing with that thing one of these days.
Okay, I took a bit of license with the last bit, but the rest I read straight from your photographs! :) Perfect set Eduardo! thank you for spreading the joy! :) ... I like how you angled your shots too.
Eduardo.affonso said at 7:51 p.m. on Oct 3, 2008: Thanks, and welcome to this "family party", ROBBIE, ROBERT & DAR.
DAR: Did you read his toughts or his lips? I do hope he will inherit my cam one of these days (hope it won't be obsolete by then!). My Mom is so completely in love with this little baby, it's amazing to watch them playing. She created a song specially for him, and he starts swinging, sort of dancing, every time she sings it. My Mom hates to be photographed, but I just can't resist - and I hope she won't get angry with me when she sees her face (and her uncombed hair!) shown to the whole world (or to tabbloworld, at least).
AliDar said at 8:28 p.m. on Oct 3, 2008: Nah, just had fun interpreting his expressions. couldn't help it. :) ... Your Mom is beautiful even with her hair uncombed. ... maybe more so because it's not. Besides it's her eyes and smile that the world will see.

Liliana said at 10:14 p.m. on Oct 3, 2008: ¡¡¡¡¡Adorabilímos!!!!! Beijos e mais beijos para los dos. El bebé es affonsinísimo, sin dudas. Y de una dulzura total (no sé si eso es affonsino, rs, rs...).

Eduardo.affonso said at 1:35 p.m. on Oct 4, 2008: Thank you A LOT for your kind comments, TEO, LINDA, ANNELIES, DAVID, MARIAN, DEBBIE, LILIANA, RHONDA & DAR (again).
It's so true what you said about beauty being beyond the surface. The last pic is absolutelly imperfect (bad framing etc etc etc) yet it's my favorite, because it shows authentic joy, pure happiness.
LILIANA: Acho que doçura total é um dos elementos básicos do Affonsinismo. Aliado, claro, à inteligência completa, à simpatia absoluta e à mais inteira modéstia...
Ira said at 1:58 a.m. on Oct 5, 2008: They look very happy in a community with each other!:) very lovely photos
Chilla said at 10:02 a.m. on Oct 5, 2008: Beautiful natural shots!
Liliana said at 6:37 p.m. on Oct 5, 2008: Affonso dixit!!! ;)
Pkeener said at 5:26 p.m. on Oct 6, 2008: oh my heart just melted. such pure joy. each with a childlike sparkle and undeniable love. and the obvious love that came from behind the camera, as well. this gets 5 hearts.
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Janer said at 12:03 p.m. on Oct 7, 2008: I couldn't help but smile myself when I was looking at their photos, love the glow in their faces. You're really amazing in capturing intimate moments... :)
Ebucar said at 6:40 p.m. on Oct 8, 2008: Como disse a Liliana, " El bebé es affonsinísimo, sin dudas". Aliado, claro, à inteligência completa, à simpatia absoluta e à mais inteira modéstia..." Oh , my!!! O João é simplesmente um fofo. É olhar para ele e dar vontade de beijá-lo sem parar. O tabblo ficou lindo e, como você sabe, para mim, o olhar mágico do fotógrafo, o momento capturado é sempre mais importante e envolvente que um bom enquadramento e outros aspectos técnicos.
