Running Boy

Doesn't he look as if he's just standing on one leg?
Yet he is running. I was surprised to see several people
running just like this, with their bodies straight up and
down, not leaning forward as you would expect. Perhaps
when the ground is slippery, instinctively we lean over
less to keep from falling? Still, it looks a bit strange.

Looks like he has run on snow before; perhaps home to get his skates. Nice winter’s fun scene. The sign on the pole puts it all together.

I love this image!! Wonderful view of the winter landscape. I like that sign to that says "NO ICE FISHING." Great work!

Nice catch and very interesting insight. To me he looked like a skater in the thumbnail.
