Day 206 of 365 – The Reader


The Reader, originally uploaded by jeff_golden.

Large On Black

My Nephew, Justuss, has loved to read since he could. I snapped this of him at one of his brother’s birthday party today and thought I would make it my photo of the day. He is looking down here reading something and I thought that it really captured a lot of what this quiet boy was all about.
