i♥faces week 33--Nostalgia
Wow am I late..I really had no intention in entering this week's challenge. Not only it *is* a challenge to find a photo that fits the theme, but I was going to take a break from it--all the anticipations and excitements wear me out (if this makes sense at all).
But I was just going through some old photo albums, and I found something.
This is Farrington Lake in Central New Jersey, where my husband grew up. When he was a boy he used to live right by the lake. He and his brothers had many years exploring in the woods and fishing right by the lake. This past summer, we took our son to the same place where his Daddy grew up. It was a fun experience seeing the two sitting right by each other; feeling two completely different sensations: my husband, feelings of nostalgia, and my son, feelings of new adventures.

Daddy's shirt says "California" too. How perfect! The past and the present colliding!
Love the diagonal and your comp too!
Love the picture. How he looks over the lake, with a lot of hope and dreams in his eyes.
Great picture!
Sounds like a beautiful place...and to live right by the lake (sigh). The pic is so sweet and as usual, I love your eye for composition. The expression on your son's face is also just perfect. :)
