Solitude

A few times in my life I have recognized an opportunity to capture a

memorable feeling with my camera. Sitting there in the fading light,

cool water flowing by, I had that chance. I wanted to capture his

expression, but not lose the context of location. Also I noticed that

several landscape contour lines led the viewer's eye back to my

subject. Therefore I chose to step back and include surroundings. It

does work for me. However I think it is a little faded to an

outsider. Do you think I should have cropped more? How could I have

made this a more powerful image?

Late afternoon sun and/or having him look at the camera are the only changes that come to mind Dave ............ (-; .......... or maybe B&W
