Heading for home... by northy

Heading for home...

This is in my neighbourhood, but I do not know this kid... I was shooting the light when he came along kicking the ball, with this hair and water bottle glowing in the sun :)

I have another completely different sorta shot in my "just because" album... just because ;p

Thank you so much for viewing and commenting on my recent photos... and just for the record, the cemetary shot from yesterday was taken less than 30 feet in and I didn't feel in the least bit spooked ;D

I think I am behind again in commenting but hope to have some time to catch up tomorrow...
Great capture! Love the light!

Fantastic shot. Love the way you framed this and the light is gorgeous.

Love the light and the composition, even if it breaks the rules, maybe because it breaks the rules.

Beautifull registration of life and light.

Like this a lot. Very poetic

Great b/w northy!

what wonderful compositon, bw, and the light is soooo good i love it. the light framing the boy makes the photo i think. any post? :)
September 3rd, 2012  
@brin Tx Mark! Guess it depends on how you define "post processing"... I was out there shooting because I had noticed that the road looked positively molten in the late afternoon light and it pretty much looked like that "sooc"... Used nik sfx 2 to convert to bw and played w the sliders and filters a bit - but no localized touch ups :)

love this little bomb, and as a b&w it's fabulous!

So how are you with low-key captures?...feel up to that as my Get-Pushed challenge to you this week? :-) Considering you're taking in 2 partners this week, I'm hoping this won't' drain too much of your camera time, but did notice you didn't really have any in your album. Hope it's an enjoyable challenge for you :-)

@socalgal Ha! I've tried low key twice and sucked at it... 'twill be good for me to give it a go again and see if I can figure it out... Tx :)

The glow is fab. I love how he's right in the edge of the shot xx
September 3rd, 2012  
I love the outline of sun around him! Great shot! You have me thinking about gravestones now!
September 3rd, 2012  
Great bright light. Love that silver lining surrounding him.
September 3rd, 2012  
It gives the impression of heat and lethargy the way he is just gently kicking the ball! Very nice!
September 3rd, 2012  
Nice one! Love all the light, beautifully composed!
