River Bound
A family walks to the river, on a New Year's Day excursion, at Hart Park. Bakersfield, CA - USA
On New Year's Day 2021, at the height of the pandemic, I was about to leave the park, when family members exited their vehicles and walked towards me heading for the river. The lens locked onto the masked boy's direct gaze, and the girl's diagonal pivot, relative to the main group's linear approach, was strikingly irregular. The scene resembled a determined pilgrimage of sorts.
One of my favorite black and white images.
