Anita, I very much like the unusual point of view, here, with your son leaning over as he is and all the action so clearly portrayed. That combined with the colors of the flags and the uniform, along with the environment, make this a striking photo. #4342696

Thank you all so much! Mitch, I was surprised to find this. Everyone went their own way and I was just taking snapshots and while several were good and the lighting was perfect at that time, this one was a surprise and my favorite for all the reasons you mentioned :) I will treasure this one, William! #4343917
