The picture features an adorable baby boy sitting among a bunch of pumpkins. The baby has curly light hair and is wearing a green cap with a yellow front. He is dressed in a striped orange and white shirt with navy blue suspenders. He has a big, joyful smile on his face showing his little teeth. The baby is surrounded by medium-sized, bright orange pumpkins. Some of the pumpkins have stickers on them. The background is a brown cardboard-like surface with some green patches. The baby's blue shoes are also visible, and he seems to be having a great time sitting among the pumpkins. <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/be-my-eyes-helping-blind-see/id905177575?mt=8> Be My Eyes on the App Store HTH, Richard, USA “Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass.
