 I had a walk in Reykjavik city, pausing the volcano for few days. Did some bokeh experiments for a change.

This boy passed me on his bike, and looked back at me to check me out a bit more. I was looking at him through my lens and captured his quick look. While looking at him again now, I also would like to travel back in time, to the years of "play all day"

I like this photo except for the boy's expression. He seems to be saying, "Why the heck are you still looking at me?" -- It somewhat sours the otherwise idyllic mode of the image.

Nicely done. The young adventurer gives such a different meaning to the picture than an empty road.
