CRW_5533
A rather flawed file in many ways.

Very dreamlike - has an eeriness to it.

A full frame, monotone version of CRW_5533.



I would agree with nixter, the unusual crop on this foto is a problem & consideration during edit, but also was to a great extent dictated by restrictions of the lens, by a rather uncomfortable shooting position and narrow angle of view. The picture was made through the passenger window of my pickup just as I had pulled up next to this child who was sitting along the road side. His head severely cropped on the bottom - is due mainly to the fact that the inside door of my vehicle is actually what would have been seen had I lowered the lens.
The young boy spoke no understandable language, except possibly to children under the age of 2. He was alone, but two friendly ankle biter dogs apparently had been accompanying him on a journey. They all were playing together in the ditch.
I made a few pictures, but I do like this one the best, where he first recognized and acknowledged my presence. He is indeed as jdannels states "...peering in at you and not the other way around."
His mother appeared quarter of an hour after I had stopped. The child had wandered about a half mile from his home.

I love this -- the quirky colors and the head floating in space. Nixter's crop works well, too.

I wish there was a little more of the body, but this way it appears that he is peering in at you and not the other way around.

Lost huh!
Crop and soft focus forces the perspective very well.

Love the softness in this image. Sweet.

This image is very nice. The blur works so well, like looking at the world through a child's eyes. Mysterious and beautiful, full of wonder.

so pretty. Nixters crop works quite well also.

A lovely soft glow and a very interesting composition! It makes me feel as if the childs head has become detached from his body. I would try a crop from the left side to just in front of the ear and maybe some off the top something like this

Does have a very dreamlike feel. Love the lighting and the soft colors to match.
