These three critters were overly curious about my activities when I was attempting to photograph a neon motel sign in Kingman, AZ. They asked if I was a photographer and then asked if I’d take their picture. For the next 15 minutes it was back and forth about who would be in the next shot and what they’d be doing. Next, each kid wanted to take a photo of one of the others, etc, etc. They really gave personality to the old motel and where fun to shoot.
OK, I have to know! Were they really that filthy or was it mostly Photoshop? They look like they were having a blast!
Your photo brings up a good point, sometimes I think we forget about why we take photos in the first place – for the fun of it.
The kids where by no means clean… but some of the processing exaggerated the dirt just like it did on the hotel wall and sidewalk.
