Young Guns

It was sunset so it provided good light, then I saw a group of kids playing in the dumps with toy guns, they were running and jumping around lost in their make-believe world. I stood there for a while enjoying what they were doing and waited for the decisive moment.

About Artist

Rene Bernal

An IT engineer by profession, a programmer, a former house painter, a frustrated guitar player and a father to two lovely daughters. I love art although I cannot paint or draw. But hopefully, through photography, I will be able to express my own vision and inspire others. I was born in Quezon City, Philippines.
