p.1 #1 · Chance Encounter

I was walking home this evening and ran into a good friend pulling her young son in a wagon. He's a bit shy and only consented to giving me one shutter click, but I'm happy with the result. I did very minimal processing and left it completely uncropped.
Cheers,
Brent

I'd be happy, too, Brent. No fake smile. Pensive moments like this are rare. Speaks volumes.
(I am guessing that he's trying not to suck his thumb in front of a stranger)

Thank you. No thumb sucking, he's just very, very shy. Pretty much the same every other time I've met him.
Cheers,
Brent

Thanks, Dan. He's actually not upset at all. I've seen him a few other times and he's always this way. Very shy, won't make eye contact. Hopefully it's just a phase.
Cheers,
Brent

Did ice cream do the trick? It sure would work for me. 😁🍧

Candid portraits like this are my favorite! Even from shy kids.
