I just love this picture...I feel sad, also: who are this boy? so gentle, and the lamb so beautifull too. Life is like this: one go, one come. Now is my time, but not this lovely child,s time.
thank you for sharing.

Hi Ana de Castro! Welcome!! Thanks for you comment ans sharing your thouhts.You're right that life and death go hand in hand...but I've never thought that about this image. I think it is a farm boy maybebe a shepherd...and as he is never used to have his photo taken he looks very serious...

But we will never know will we?!
