Comment by MacDonald:
I can't really put into words why this photo affects me so deeply, maybe because I have 4 sons and 3 grandsons - but more than that .. it's as if he is much deeper in thought than we imagine a child his age would be .. and the thought is what the story is all about. Thank you for this photo, it really touches my heart.
I voted earlier - a 9

my apologies for not seeing this beautiful child as female .. my eyes were taken so much to the interesting position of the hand and the shadow of the eyes, I did not notice the delicate features or hair.

Looks like a bspurgeon joint. Crazy leading lines -- very appealing. That little notch of dry land against the horizon at the right is curious and cool.

Masterly composition. The hand clasping the x intersection is one of the great "accidents" unless you carefully planned it, which would not surprise me in your case.
As a side q, how do you make the link to the other Balboashots? Sorry for the ignorant question.
