from Stairway to Heaven. (There's a feeling I get when I look to the west and my spirit is crying for leaving) My son and I went to the same old abandoned grainery where "Boy Lost" was taken. He's a few years older and I liked the feeling of him looking out the old window.

Again, it is that wonderful light you have captured illuminating your subject. The moody lighting plays well into the feel of searching and seeking what lies beyond the broken window.
It only occurred to me after I had voted that in fact young 'un there is looking to the east (I always think of myself looking toward the north ;-). But such is life. Still a shot worthy of the challenge and one of your best IMO.
