Climbing Fences

Uploaded: May 24, 2005

Description

This was taken mid morning. The aperture was 4.8 and the shutter was 160. The ISO was 80. I converted to sepia and painted the overalls and added the decorative border.

I didn't know he was actually going to climb the fence, but I was glad to capture this moment.

Well this is the first time I have seen it, but I love it. So crisp and sharp, yet soft. Well done. #253656

Had to tell you, this is such a WONDERFUL photo! Really love the composition and effects! I was browsing around and came across your name, so I thought I'd stop by your gallery. It isn't every day I see another Nadya, even though it isn't spelled the same - especially, one whose nickname is evidently Nikki! Me too. Small world! Smith and Johnson, yet? I once checked into a motel with my friend whose name was Smith, and the clerk just "knew" we were using fake names! Well, your smile for the day (maybe). The photos of your son are great! I also have a son; grown now, and yet to appear on the site but I'm sure he will. I enjoyed your gallery very much! #2475534
