I never understood the fascination for fishing (je vais me faire massacrer par les adeptes !!!) but I have always been fascinated by fishermen (or boys). When a kid, on our ritual walk on the pier in Calais, I used to spend more time looking at the fishermen, the little bench/box with all their "tools" (?), the fishes they already had caught, than the sea itself !! No, I am wrong : I spent all my time watching fishermen AND ships crossing the Channel, my first virtual trips !!!! You're right, Alexa, this little man seems so focused ! The rest of the world no longer exists for him !!!
What focus! Isn't he adorable. And aside from that, it's a beautiful photo with his bright striped t-shirt against the weathered grey and sea and sky tones. Nice catch, Alexa!

this is great Alexa. I enjoyed enlarging this and seeing his expression up close. Marylene is right, he is lost in his own world.
ReplyDeleteYou have captured a moment this little boy will probably remember all his life: the simple pleasures of childhood.
