Bonjour,
Très beau cliché, plein de vie et d'énergie.
Les couleurs, comme le contraste, servent parfaitement la mise ne scène, notamment dans l'utilisation des filets comme aire de jeu.
Quelques détails sont très intéressants, comme notamment le petit bonhomme en bas à gauche, qu'on voit à peine, mais qui nous indique que le photographe fait complètement partie du jeu.
Bravo
Thomas

Great scene, Luko! Life jumping on the nets. What I love most is the face smiling bottom left, in the green

Hi Luko,
A fun image which portrays the free spirit of these boys. Although the composition is probably a bit cluttered with no main focus point, that doesn't really affect the photo negatively. The entire mood is one of sharing the joyful experience with your friends....that you've captured. Well done.
Cheers Grant

Bonjour,
Une photo pleine de vie, avec ces mômes en pleines cabrioles. Elle offre une jolie promenade pour le regard. J'ai mis un moment d'ailleurs avant de faire attention au visage souriant en premier plan. La petite touche qui met de bonne humeur.

Cette image serait digne de HCB si l'horizon était... horizontal! Mais pour le reste, c'est parfait!

Very nice, Luko. Super dynamism at work here. For me the little head in the bottom left pocket is key. I'm not 100% sure about the little fatty poking into the frame on the bottom right...
Best,

Some great action here with kids all over the place enjoying themselves. I like the organised mess of the shot, no doubt in the same spirit as how they mess around.

Salut Luko,
j'adore les couleurs et le mouvement de cette photo et, .., même la frimousse du gamin apparaissant dans le coin de l'image.
Amicalement

Je ne sais pas mais les plages de sable attirent souvent les acrobates en herbe ;o) ici y a 8 pers qui ont chacun une attitude differente, mon prefere celui de gauche, tu tires ou tu pointes George ;o) a moins que cela soit une danse egyptienne ;o)

Génial! quelle joie se dégage de cette photographie! on dirait un acces de joie totalement débridée, des acrobates matinées de clowns... Un futur petit torero qui cherche encore son taureau à droite, ce regard amusé en bas à gauche qui vient illuminer la scène! Bref, une photo qui mérite les plus hauts sommets des smileys! rien à voir avec certaines mièvreries qui emportent des 100-200 points... Ha foutu marketing! ;-)

I like how this image succeeds to transport the fun these kids have playing on the beach. I almost can hear the laughter and cries.
I first considered cropping from the top and to the right (cropping out the guy with the red shirt), but after doing it, I saw that this image needs all the space above. Well captured.

Hello Luko
The green nets covering a part of the frame give me a vague remembrance of India,
the kids are well distributed throughout the photo. I guess small coment would be to either have framed the photo slightly more down and left or to have croped whats left of the guy on the right off.

OK, you choose this one because the kid close to the bottom left edge is looking at you. No? Then why? It's the only thing that makes this one better than the one in the middle. That green net is amazing. I would love to see more light comming out of it, but I understand that this wasn't the right time of the day for that. I don't know also what's in the foreground but probably I would had composed this a bit to the left and to the bottom. There's too much washed sky for my taste and less of those foreground kids. Not bad anyway.

Salut Luko,
Geniale celle-ci! J'adore les couleurs avec ce vert bleute et ce ciel tout doux. Les kids sont geniaux egalement: silver surfer ds sa chemise hawaiienne rouge, la p'tite frimousse en bas a gauche, comme la bete de Gotlib, celui de droite qui se voit faire un saut-perilleux est mon prefere.
Bien joue!

Another fun shot Luko. IT would be good pretty much no matter what, but having the little kid tucked into the corner really lifts it further. The only (very) minor thing for me is that the guy in the red keeps pulling my eye towards him and for some reason it bothers me that he is overlapped with the boat in the background. I don't know why this is so noticable for me.

hello Luko,

very nice daily life scene, like we are visiting Zanzibar too. very nice compo, with the little heat on the bottom of the photo, it does not disturb the image, it is a funny detail.
greetings,inn

Salut Luko, another image i love...why?
1) the contrast of colours is fantastic...the gray sky against the strong green is a beauty...the texture of the net has a great graphic impact..
2) the action and joy you captured here....it is full of life this image...all the children with different positions...
3) the jump you stopped...a perfect moment and position..
4) but this is the most important thing in the image for me...the look and the smile of the boy on the left side...just in the angle...his eyes are wonderful..

ciao!

Exellent timing with the motor drive Luko ;). Good shot but it bothers me that there is so much sky in this photo. Added to that, the child buried in the fishing net on the lower left corner of the photo would of been enough reason to just tilt the camera down a bit more to see what's reveled.

I haven't seen your work in ages so it's refreshing to catch up. I am surprised that you are using a big zoom lens instead of primes though. Is it because it's easier to travel with?

Best,
Mark
