It’s been a while since my last post, and even longer since my last visual word of the day entry, which is not to say that I have not been shooting, just that I have not been posting.

Hi Jay,
Your photo above really set me thinking about photography. It’s a very clever shot. But too often as amateurs we think of shooting the subject rather than creating or finding an image. If that had been me, I’d have made a portrait of one of the children, or made them stand together. But your shot is really powerful and has shown me something.
Thanks.
Hello Jay! I love this idea, and I love the composition of your photo. I am so glad photography is subjective. No one is really wrong, just has a different take on it. To me the inclusion of the body of the larger child emphasizes the frangibleness of the smaller child.
