Arrow and Arrow

Archery is the national sport in Bhutan. This young chap is a bit too young to handle the bow, so he makes due with two arrows. He would push the arrow a few feet in front of him and then joyfully run up to it, pick it up and repeat. As an aside, the archery contests don’t use targets. Winners are determined by the distance the arrow flies.

Great capture of the child in action! Love the dynamic post and strong colors. I might consider a clone or burn of the clasp top right. Good stuff with this one.

I like this image as well. Aside from the story it tells it’s well put together.

A fun image, Richard. Artistically, I think it would have been nice to catch him a few steps earlier when the lighter colored wall was out of the image, but it’s still effective.

a sweet image - sure love your people portraits and glad they have a Category.
Congrats on the fine WP!
