thank you emorgan :-) you summed it up nicely, the rule of thirds does not always apply - and in this case definately does not.

The image as you so rightfully put it, is about him, and `now` not where he was, or where he's going - just the dreamy childs world that he is in.

I personally see this as being off-centered.. although closer to centered than not, but I like the spacing. Also, with the title, I'm not sure that I'm interested in where he's been, *or* where he's going, but instead.. where he *is*. Surrounded by vastness, alone, with time and endless decisions all around him.

This is why I like photographs like these.. so open to individual interpretation. :)

Lovely shot of the boy walking. He seems very happy to be on his way somewhere. You captured it well.

Very nice dof and lighting in this shot. He really looks like he's in a world of his own.

This is so cute...I have three sons so I know about this world in which little boys live. Nice processing. :o)
