Boys with Kites 1968 by *hfpierson The distribution of the subjects in this photo is perfect and the tones are beautiful! This makes me think of summer. Gorgeous work. (Suggested by *BobRock99 and Featured by `rhapsouldize)

I'm so glad you posted this. Not just because it's a great shot, but because I was worried. The shot really is great. And I worry way too much, I guess.

Happy last day of Chanukah to The Girl. You too.
