I was going through some images and came across this one of my son and I last spring in So. California in the Antelope Valley. Here the Dynamic Duo, Camera Man & Lens Boy, are out catching rogue light rays among the fleeting moments of time!

Well composed action showing a bit of what it takes to be a serious photographer. Beautiful poppies. I would rotate CW to level the horizon. :wink:

Youssef, this one brought a smile to my face! What a great capture, showing a father and son enjoying time together. This is one to cherish.

I agree on the CW rotation, but it in no way detracts from the value of the photo.

This is a fantastic shot, Youssef. Great expressions and poses from the both of you. This will be a great photo to look back on for years to come, remembering the time you spent in the field with your son. This shot just made me smile and made my day. Thanks for posting.

I have a new superhero idol! Too funny. Great pic too, Youssef. It looks like your son might just appreciate nature and the outdoors about as much as you do. Thanks for the smile!

Nice shot! Looks like everyone was having fun. I like the contrast of the blue bags with the acres of golden poppies. Hey, you look like a superhero with that cape!

Youssef, well this is just about as good as it gets for candid images, I really like this one a lot. Even more so then the candid shot I took of you, Lon, & Preston last fall. :wink:
