The Waiter and the Kids

Even though I spend nearly 75% of the time shooting people (my two kids), I have rarely posted in this forum :dunno
However, I did break out of my element of shooting landscapes by taking some other people shots in the past few weeks. I was rewarded for my efforts by having the first shot get first place in our local Kelby photowalk that took place in July :barb
The other series is from the town of Magnolia where I got a chance to capture what I hope is the essence of Summer (at least in New England).

    Hey, haven't seen you in a while! Welcome back. (If you were gone... though I might be crazy)

    Looove #1... processing, mood and the colors just are incredible!

    I think #2 could benefit from some warming up of your reds. Beautiful moment you caught. Like your angle and the action.

    #3 is not as fantastic as the others due to the rail blocking his feet... it looks like he might get hurt... it makes me wince.

    #4.. lookes like you pano-ized it a bit, but I would go further... a 5 x 10 ratio would be just about right, cropping out the bottom.

    Fun photos!

    Thanks Heather!
    As for #3, you should have seen the rest of the series... in the words of Maxwell Smart "missed it by that much"
    I see your point on #4. I was trying to include the extent of the first two splashes but agree with a tighter fano (fake pano mwink.gif)

    As for me. Was gone from the boards for a bit as we bought and then promptly renovated a house. I'm in 'landscape' mode at the moment - even though 3/4 of my photos are of my kids. Just don't want to bore everyone with photos of them here but I'll make it a point to try to do so from now on.
