Hello Shel, I like the placement of the kids along with enough around it to help identify the place/circumstances. I've always loved shots of kids playing - getting harder to shoot in these modern times (not because kids don't play, but because our society is wary of strangers).
I do think, however, that a fair bit of cropping could be done both top and left without affecting the overall scene. It would help us pick up on the subject a little more. I realize, that you had to shoot what you could with the lens at hand (maybe even for my benefit - thanks). -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, June 29, 2006, 12:05:05 AM, you wrote: SB> Well, it's back to "street photography" for me ...
