POTW 2/4/13

A little late due to Easter, but here's my choice for picture of the week this week. It's an image taken 8 years ago, but one which has a timeless appeal. The young child pointing back at us really strengthens this image and I like the sympathetic sepia treatment. Congrats zafra52

Shots of children showing their interest in their pic being taken always appeals to me - well done
