I have been attempting more people shots. Luckily my nephew was kinda letting me take pictures of him and a friend's little brother allowed me to shoot him while skateboarding.

I thought at first my lens was really dirty with those specs, towards where he is looking, but then I remembered we were being swarmed with a ton of pesky flies!

Thanks for looking!

    Nice shots.

    I am not fond of the angle of 1 and 2. It looks like the natural angle of an adult shooting a child. I like it better when you get down at eye level, as you did in some others.

    Oddly, this angle seems to work for adults. But so many snapshots are natually taken with kids at this angle, I think it works better to drop a knee and get at their level. but then, I could be wrong. I am knew to this.

    Hmm.. I will try to get lower to get on my nephews height to shoot. Which was weird cause he was near the top of the ramp and I was at the bottom! haha!

    I kinda like photos with this angle and the angle you say I should do for kids. Varies things up!

    Thanks for looking!

    #5 is actually a pretty good capture. I like the composition because it really communicates the energy and movement of what is going on. Great job on that one! :D
