I love the lighting and the composition. I like the framing and the nice leading line. Great image!
Thanks!
I saw this the other day Keith. I didn’t just blow it off, the opposite. I have a thing about shooting kids and I let that get in the way of my vision. After a few days, I am now back and I still have that thing in front of my vision but I see that you were very careful in making this photo. This is a good shot…..
I can understand the “thing” about photographing kids. I know your son is a lot older then mine, Ethan is 5, I don’t have the feeling that I am exploiting them in anyway. I like to show them being “kids”.
Someone on another site commented on my bravery in making a shot of a child that was not my own. When I told him it was my son, he said, “There is no bravery in that.” WTF… What does it matter. The image mattered more to me because it was my son.
Here, I loved the child dancing and soaking in the late afternoon sun… his t-shirt and his rosary beads…
