Ya know... This shot has continued to haunt and grow on me since I first saw it - there are so many levels of meaning here. I love the fact that you emblazened the words of the Declaration of Independence on his back (symbolizing our forefathers who literally bore the scars of making and endorsing those words). The unrecognizable and almost slavelike position of your son supports the fact that these ideals have been upheld by the actions (and on the backs) of many people that we will never know. I didn't score this highly enough during the challenge (I only gave it a 7, but I'm glad to see that it still ribboned). I've now added it to my favorites and would score it a 10 today. I've learned a lot from this photo (both technically and creatively).
