gosh, what innocence in his eyes, and those lips, gosh.. what a smile he must have. another amazing personal capture of a moment which would otherwise have drifted off unnoticed.

this is so cute. and so typical of children. while the world is off blahblahblahing...he finds something more interesting and meaningful to examine. like clouds. or...lint.

This is an awesome shot! Everyone in the background is talking, but this one little kid is paying attention to something else of interest!
Did that child notice you taking the shot after you took it?

wow cool shot. love the DOF here, the family is so perfectly out of focus...emphasizing that the little boy is in his own world. great expression too!
if you dont mind me asking...what focal length and aperture did you use here?

Only in a child's eyes, can you see such pure wonder and fascination. Love the catchlights.

aww..I can't believe I missed this one..it's so beautiful.
and you're completely correct. It is a wonder when we stop seeing what the children see.
I wish I could go back to the old parks I used to play at as a child and see those same aircrafts and odd objects out of the plain metal bars. Play one last time truely like a child.
great job on this, it brought up many emotions.

Thanks babe! Totally, when I was a kid I totally loved all of that stuff... for example, the playgournd was a place of endless possibilities to me. Slowly, reality took place of imagination, and the playground became a much smaller place.
Wah!

Thank for the feedback, Acid
Actually, that's not true. Every day I marvel at the birds at UC San Diego, ravens that grow to be the size of men.
