 Early morning, mother and son walking along,mother reading the paper and the son playing a rubrics cube, when the mother spotted me stopped as did her son with the mother looking at the camera and the son just kept on without looking up, did not realize the street effect until I downloaded the image and saw the shadows and light from the boy in his own world. Explained the photo shoot to the mother and she said go for it.

Kinda sad that kids these days are so involved in games that they don't see the real world.

Maybe if the lady of the left was cropped out it would bring more focus to the kid. Good exposure.

I have to guess that the title and the picture is about the boy. I find myself looking between the boy and the woman, actually reading the dead line of her paper.
