That's super. I love his expression, and characteristically clever processing (soft tones in the surrounding vegetation) to focus attention to him through the frame.

This is a wonderful capture Maria! Out of interest, how posed was the shot?

Nice shot, Maria. I think I may have gone for a more conventionally contrasty conversion in this instance rather tha all those soft greys. But that's just me.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Thanks Andy, not posed at all, he ran ahead of us climbed the gate and opened it, as he jumped down he turned to make sure we were still there, just a quick shot that i hoped i would capture hand held
Kind regards Maria

Having seen the colour version I think that has more impact.
