This young student has momentarily detached himself from his schoolmates as they toured the historical exhibits in Georgia’s State Capitol building. He lowers himself to the floor to get a closer view of the contents of a showcase. My camera found him as he became totally absorbed in what he was seeing. He never even looked up. He was studying objects that represented part of his state’s long and troubled history, and was reading the captions about them with awe etched upon his face. Human values such as knowledge and discovery underscore this image, while the warm, reflected light from the showcase implies further values such as innocence and wonder.
