Hey Mickie, a wonderful shot. It encourages me to explore the fantastic photographic opportunities that children provide (I tend to get a bit carried away with nature shots!). Wishing you a blessed weekend.
Black and white is an excellent medium. It is what we had to use when I was in Japan during the Occupation as color slide film and color print film was just beginning to show up. The problem was it had to be shipped by military airplanes to Honolulu, Hawaii to be processed and that took two weeks to make the round trip. You may end up with a bunch of blurry pictures. So most of us stuck with Tri-X black and white film.
When I first saw this picture I thought the little boy might be peeing through the rails.
There os so much to see below as the tyke studies what lies below. From his frame of reference, everything he surveys is new to his eyes. He is learning by wondering, trying to make sense of it all. It is a new perspective...a nice view!
A most beautiful image! I think having it in black and white really enhances the photo. Great composition and detail. More importantly, this photograph evokes feelings. You are truly gifted. Precious capture, Mickie!
Nice shot with shapes and shadows. If I can stick my oar in; I would do a vertical crop to cut out the dark railings in the top left of the shot, as they distract the eye a little. Hope comments are allowed!
The composition and colouring on the shot are sheer perfection. I love the repetition style of the fence (one of my things) and this works really well particularly as the boys shadow is smaller than the shadow of the fence.

What a fine image for B&W - it probably wouldn't be nearly so effective in color.
«Louis» thanks you for visiting San Francisco Bay Daily Photo.
So lovely shot and feelings :)

so true Mickie...you have really captured a beautiful moment.
Offering a penny for his thoughts. Mickie, this is just wonderful!
This is an excellent shot, Mickie. The regular, repeated lines of the railings and boards emphasize the little boy and his shadow. Bravo!
Stunning shot with a beautiful haiku to go with it. Some friends of mine do a haiku meme once a week if you are interested:

Too much contemplation rattles the brain and disturbs the soul! :-)
SHADOW BOLD
Shadow bold and shadow bright,
Shadow with me day and night,
Shadow taller than a tree,
Tell me what you think of me!

Love the crisp lines of the shadows here. And the perspective is wonderful too.
So deep in thought for one so young!
Perfect photo for B&W.
Great capture. I would love to know what is going on in that little mind.
That's a wonderful shot. I love the child in contemplation and the great shadows of the bridge railing.
Beautiful black and white photo.
Regards and best wishes

Love the lines of the wharf and the shadows in the photo. Awesome photo.

You can tell he's thinking long and hard about something while standing in the shadows.
Just a wonderful shot for b/w and shadows! Great work

Sorry to be so late - computer trouble!
Perfect shot with the pensive boy and wonderful shadows!
I love this shot! I especially like the way it was framed, with the young man in the top third.
Lovely shot - magazine quality.
Nicely captured!!!
