August 24, 2011. Two things happened to me today. My youngest turned 14, and my oldest went to his first day of college, well technical college. Sitting down thinking about it, when I was 14 I was knocking off gas stations, sagging my pants, and breaking my curfew. Now I look at my boys and see how much they aren't like me. Whew!
I took my oldest to school today, and I had a moment in which I could actually see him growing into above average young man. (aside from his crappy hair that barber gave him) But none the less I'm still proud of all three of them.
This picture is one of many in which we've taken in the past. This was taken on our yearly "Guys' Day Out" in which before school starts for them, we hop into the car drive down to the city, and have ourselves a kick-ass lunch, and some type of event. Then before we head home, I give my expectations speach. We've done it so long we can just hit rewind on the tape, but there is nothing like hearing it live.
I love the composition of this shot, the apeture setting that has the background and the brothers there out of focus.. They are my best subject; although, they are exhausted, they can post-up for a shot at any given moment.
Well, he wants to have dinner at IHOP, so we're off.
