Boys Will Be Boys

Uploaded: November 13, 2005

Description

Damon, age 9, is not allowed to play with toy guns but when the neighbourhood boys engaged him in a game, he couldn't resist. His Mom was upset when she saw this picture as she is so "anti-gun." She recognized however, what a great moment it was and I assured her that the photo was more about the look on his face than the fact that he is playing with a plastic dart gun. He is hiding on the roof of the shed reloading and I was on the ground. Sarah, Damon's mom, has since asked for a copy of this pic, which she now has hanging on her wall at home.
