I mean "classic" in the much broader sense Doug. The boy's silhouette has a posture and motion that is reminiscent of older images that I might be able to remember but it's unlikely. I think this could have benefited from a crop (see Pending) off the left and right but it works as is. I'm going to vote assuming the crop because the potential is obvious in spite of the minimal pp. -tv

Thanks Tommy. I don't recall any of my stuff being referred to as classic before but I like it. -Doug

This is terrific Doug! Great timing to get the shot with his feet off the ground and out of the water. I like the tunnel framing your son and the light shining on the water and reflecting off the walls. Good one! CJ

This is amazing shot, I guess hit the subject on 12. Siluette and light is great - rollthebone

Ha ha to the sewer Rod. Thanks for the kind words. I suppose technically it is a sewer but it's actually a small stream that runs through a park. This park is full of kids in the summer playing in the water and searching out little crawdads and such. -Doug

Now this is dedication letting your kid play in the sewer for a great shot like this. The light shining on the water & wet walls look terrific & you did a great job. Excellent picy Doug.
