Not sure if the overhead geese add anything to it. It was my best shot of my son so I figured I'll live with the geese. Trying to convey a child waiting for adulthood/the big leauges.

I haven't posted in a while so I figured I might at well try to jump in with something. I think the exposure/composition is better than the challenge topic idea.

I am reading more into this than I should maybe but I will air my thoughts here. Great take and love this little guy..aspiring. As season come and go (birds migrating or coming - symbolising this) he will grow up and be a man soon to take on the world. Take one of him at the same location, same time, when he is 18...Wow what a combo. Like this very much
