Shot from a van moving at around 60 kmph. I was sitting with my camera, waiting and looking around. At a bend I noticed this boy carrying the bag.

What posthumous said: we are all in the bag which he will lift up the stairway to heaven; he does not care that we are too heavy.

That kid straining to lift the bag really makes this shot. Well done.

Great shot, a departure from the standard DPC.

It might have been better to concentrate on the subjects in the foreground rather than the entire image which is too tall to be truly effective. A good conversion to black and white, the overall contrast is a little flat to be termed excellant. A worthy entry into the challenge.

1 of 2 10's I gave. Really love the story this tells, the beautiful lighting control, and the strong lines. Excellent image.
