Springtime and Sand Toys: Michigan Style

March 31st. Just to make sure I got the date right. Best viewed on black (thanks @bob65 )! The upload really lost some sharpness though! :(

As always, I am looking forward to your feedback, critique, comments and reactions. Thanks!
Ridiculous! But it does make for a fun photo. I really like this.

Love it. Simplicity, yet a great cuteness factor. Fav

Needs to be seen on a black background, then you can fully appreciate the composition, with boy placed nicely on the thirds and his footprints acting as a lead in, and great use of negative space.

@bob65 Just took another peek Bob and you're absolutely right :)

Привет! Хороший снимок. Маленькое замечание - если такое большое белое пространство остается, очень желательно показать структуру снега. Если возможно, конечно.

Great shot!

Gives a real feeling of isolation and innocence - love it.

Excellent image.

@roulin Правда? А мне что-то так понравилось, просто в белом пространстве. Я оригинал положила в Dropbox - там снег виднее. Спасибо за комментарии. Кстати, снег уже растаял, и наш вчерашний снеговик почти уже исчез.

Awesome photo!

@vera365 Нет, не правда - это мое восприятие, которое не может быть истиной))
Посмотрел на дб - да, белый лучше - снег лежит волнами и портит восприятие.

@lynbonn Yes, Lynda! It was ridiculous, and now we have a forecast of show showers on Easter too. But it goes back and forth, so maybe it will still get nicer before we fly back. Thanks!

Thank you all so much for viewing and commenting! He was just walking around in the in-laws' backyard, and "naturally" looked so small and lost in the sudden white vastness. So, the shot kind of offered itself :)

@lindacarol Thank you, Linda! I find myself smiling at this picture even now, when all the snow has melted.

@willowdragon Thank you, Al, for your comment!

@rob24 @phil_howcroft @oly Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting! It was one of the days where I was "glad" for the snow at the beginning of the spring - since it gave me this shot. I am still smiling at it.

@onewing @kimdavis @novab @kauaikris Thank you so much for your comments and favs! I also liked the minimalism and the fact that he looked so cute in that white field.
April 3rd, 2015  
@californialover Thanks, Ute! That's what I felt like as he "went out" into the big white backyard, having demanded the shovel and the bucket. I am glad I caught it on camera - the snow is gone, but I am still smiling at the shot.

@kt8ird @jetr @sarahsthreads @888rachel @777margo @jaxtar @leejamesdavies Thank you so much for your nice comments! I am so thrilled so many people liked this picture!

@taffy Thanks! It's very true - Michigan at it's finest. We fly over for Easter every year, and every year it greets us back with heaps of snow at some day. No failing. Real Michigan spring. :)

@bob65 Thank you so much for your suggestion about viewing it on black! I am glad you enjoyed the photo and the composition!
