Boys Under Sunset

  • Photographer
    Susan Chabanier, Cambodia

These are my two sons; took it on a moving long tail boat in Thailand while visiting small
islands near Krabi. We were on our way back to the resort as the sun was going down. I
looked up to them and I saw the sunset and their shadows in between. I just love this
picture as it shows sense of adventure and how precious they are and the moment to me.
