Hi Bruce ... I was walking along, looking elsewhere, when I heard a noise, turned to my right, and there was this scene. Turned and instinctively snapped the shutter, and then I was able to get a second shot, but of an entirely different scene. I was ready to burn a few rolls of film with them, but by then the kids had lost interest ...
There are a few things about this pic that don't work real well, technically it has a couple of problems, nonetheless, the spirit of the young boy and the setting, as well as the gritty look, make it work for me Thanks for your comments..
