January 29 - Boy


This portrait of my nephew's son was taken on impulse as he stood against one of the shed doors on my sister-in-law's farm. No posing, he was just waiting there for his grandfather and it just looked right.

    1. I just turned around and grabbed the moment, I love the texture of the old door and the contemplative look on his face - minutes before this he was jumping mud puddles in the paddock.

  10. Wonderful photo...the expression, color palette and composition work together to make it so. The feeling is almost reminiscent of the old days when a boy had to go out to the wood shed to get his "whooping" as a result of misbehavior!!
