Super heroes......

These are from a new series - nothing too deep just a play on the concept of age and being invincible.
At this age, do kids think they are 'super heroes' and unbreakable? Is it inherent or is it a parent's remit to build them up to make them think that or to doubt it?
Or are these photographs more concerned with the viewer? Is it the parent who feels less invincible be it because of the difficulties of modern life or the fact the Little Jonny is growing up?
Alternatively, they focus on that age when you realise that your parent's aren't going to live forever and the firm belief that they are super heroes and will be there forever suddenly appears paper thin.

See, I told you it wasn't too deep.

Happy New Year.
