Such a wonderful image. The boy holding on to that one finger ... priceless.

Thanks for posting the color version in Pending. I like them both, but I think I prefer the B&W. I'm not sure why. Perhaps it's because B&W has a bit of a nostalgic feel to it, and the childlike wonder on both faces evokes memories of childhood. Anyway, nice job!

Thanks for your comments Alastair. Yes I agree seeing more of the boys face would have possibly improved the picture, however what struck me were the eyes of both the boy and the man - they both have this look of absolute wonder in their eyes as if to say "I wish that was me flying...."

Have a look in "Pending" for the colour version, I'd appreciate your comments on which you prefer. Thanks Michael

Beautiful shot. Its a shame the cap hides some of the kid's face, but you have to work with what you've got. I like the B&W conversion, but I'd also like to see the color version.
