Childhood_#4_1024_0200

A similar idea as in Childhood #3, its was the shadows of the two children

- one on the swing and the other pushing him - that attracted my attention.

Also the contrast in light and dark.

As I look through the critique forum, I look for images that aren't like everyone else's. Those are the ones I like to comment on. Yours caught my eye and I think it says everything you described. The contrast is excellent although it is a tad blown out at the top left. I especially like the tonal range. The viewer is required to create a story from the image.

Thank you, Anonymous for your positive response. Im aware of the  blown out top, but chose to keep it there as I figured this technical aberration supports the idea of death. But if Im mistaken, the Im mistaken :-)
