 That's my boy Rodney. A little bit of a set up but I did not coach him on how to pose or look.

idea is good. I guess you needed more movement of the crowd to separate boy and get better result.

Excellent capture!!!! Just one of those shots that only happens by sheer luck. Way to go having your camera with you! 7

Good effort. I like how the boy is almost the only one facing the camera (or at least it seems that way at first glance). I curious about how long you had to wait for this shot to develop.

Aww, poor little guy. I can just see him in the same pose on year after year of Black Fridays, without the stuffed animal for most of them ;-)

Heh! Appropriate subject matter for the challenge - well seen!

It would be better if you could zoom into the boy and throw everyone else out of focus. The composition doesn't work out well.

Somehow, the isolation and lack of emotion on the child's face gives me something to connect with. I like this photo.

Poor little guy is shopped out... good idea

I really like this, the little boys expression draws you in right away, and I "get" alone in a crowd...

I know exactly how he feels.
