The Intrepid Explorer

Thanks

Standing at the edge with that reckless look on the face, that too after (seemingly) crossing over that huge barrier. Only a child would attempt that. His facial expression is like, look at me dude, I am pretty sure you wouldn't try that.

 

-- Sometimes I wish I was that child.

Thanks for the comment. When I think of the chances I took when I was a child - climbing up trees, clambering onto roofs,challenging sheer cliffs - I sometimes wonder how I made it. It's really a good case for guardian angels. I watched this kid master this narrow ledge and thought good for him. Kids at this age should be fearless.

Like Tenzing posing at base camp.  Nicely composed, Jack.

Cheers to that

Hi Jack,

  Wonderful b/w image with great composition & expression.  Take care, Patsy

Very, very nice, I think, Jack.  I don't often remark upon composition, but this is composition used masterfully, with a purpose other than for the sake of composition itself.   It is the perfect placement to tell the tale of this explorer's journey.  I really like this.  A lot.
