The message of this picture is so strong. Innocence and life (I get that from the boy) confronting evil (and that from the sky and the b&w processing) Very well done!
This is brilliant, Alicia. Such a wonderful mix of the innocent, magical world of a child, oblivious to the storms and threats (a mushroom cloud?) that may loom.
my first thought/reaction .. WOW .. !!!!
this is awesome alicia .. love so much your amazing black and white conversion with the stark whites and the dark, nearly ominous sky .. is it my imagination or do i see a cyclone, twister brewing on the horizon .?. DOUBLE WOW .. !!! .. :)
