This was a last minute entry. I took the shot Sunday evening just before Aidan went to bed. I had not planned on entering but the lines in the road caught my attention. My desire was to end up with an image with an editing style influenced by both Goodman and Xianart (I so love both of their work). I am very pleased with the outcome of this image. It opened with a 5.3 just after rollover and is now over 6.8 on Sunday evening. Would love to see this place in the top 10. I never expected it to score this well. Odds are I will wake up just after rollover to see how it did.

YOu know you are going to have to start paying a little more than icecreams and zoo trips for your models. They may even need to have a Manager. I am thinking Disney Land
I've sent a secret email to his kids - they're now gonna model for me - exclusively! I've promised them delicious German black forest gateaux ;-)
Btw, congrats Tim, excellent shot.

Love a photo that so perfectly suits the challenge, yet stands so solidly on its own as well. Excellent job seeing and executing this simple yet impactfull shot.
Terrific! Minor quibble: I would like to have seen the line ahead of him directly over his head versus to the left. But this a great idea and well captured and processed.
The next day: On second thought, I like it just the way it is. A nine for you.
I like the urban feel you've obtained with the muted tones and the vignetting at the corners. Composition is balanced with the boy being in the top third. The title ties it all together. Great job!
