fantastic picture! despite the fact that there are several things that would horrify safety advocates in the US, it is a perfect moment.
I love the baby’s expression. Classic.
Looks like a great time.
Scott
+1 on the baby’s expression, that’s just great. Lovely pic overall too.
Matthew
How precious! Even their eyes match the frame color! Just lovely!
Wonderful photo. It’s a treasure you’ll have forever. I’m certain she’ll always be a cyclist.
LOL , there are safty aspects , that is not what the picture is about . Great picture , one of my favorites . Many of my favorite elements , a pretty woman , a cute baby and a bicycle . In my book all it needs is a dog to make it perfect . ;-)
