I like the inclusion of the tray of glasses, the pitcher, the hanging woven ornament to give this image a sense of place. i am guessing that this wary boy is in his home, and I'd be wary too if I had strangers traipsing through! What is that surface the walls and ledge are made of?? A really good image of this dwelling to show how people live.

The image flows diagonally, starting with the work of craft on the wall, and flowing town through the child to the glasses and the finally, the small pot. Yes, he is wary. I captured that same wariness in my image of him athttp://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/106454853
