This is an extraordinary photo. Everything is working for you from pattern to color to focus to subject. I also now get the title when I see the location.

I am most impressed with your work that gets close and simplifies the photo. You seem to use focal depth very effectively. #325673

Thanks for your kinds comments John, though I have to admit it was more by chance than skill that this shot turned out as well as it did. I think it is the kid's expression of wondering, dreaming, or not quite being here that makes it for me.

I have to agree with John! Wonderful pattern, dof, and composition. The look on his face fits this shot perfectly. #2470794
