What a cute youngster you have here Jake. Looks like the umbilical cord is still there. Major cute alert!
Make your life spectacular!

So sweet at this tender age. The fall of around 6ft with the mother giving birth standing up causes the umbilical chord to snap, but it will take a little longer to dry up and fall off, so this is just a baby - and absolutely adorable, Jake! A lovely find, and photo.

A beautiful youngster. The pattern of the Masai coat is one of my favorites. The setting and pose are great, along with the soft light and colors.
