Melancholy
The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #121 is ‘Focus on the subject’.
One from the archives. A little boy in Montpellier.
The B4 retouch series
I browsed my archive for pictures to publish. All of them are not completely retouched yet. Scratches, dust and stains are not removed.
Shot with Nikon F90 on Kodak TriX, scanned from film and edited using Snapseed and Marksta, Click the picture for a bigger version

Truly a great archive photo Chris
The subject of our little bike rider has a nice vibe with the pattern on the wheels and that brick path and the perspective
But the lady to the back right also kept getting my eye – her leg positioning and the other presence of people to the back changes the whole mood – one of community and maybe generations too.
