It appears they had a bit of a collision. Right?
Your picture is really very nice. The colours are fantastic and the sea blending into the sky is excellent. Your composition is also good with the house very well placed and balancing the over frame.

Hello Bill,
A very appealing composition of these two children enjoying themselves on the water. I like the point of view and the juxtaposition between the two canoes and the hut at the end of the pier. Very nice soft colours and light.

Well composed there is no demarkation between see and sky this is making picture more splendid and your note is also very informative thanks for sharing.

It doesn't matter how often I see this, I still get really nervous seeing these little people alone in the boat!! A great picture though with the hut in the background. Very well done. TFS

Hey Bill,

Had a rough day, but such pictures always cheer me up. :)
Very beautiful, an yet simple. Full of perfect colors, and as always - a tropical motive.

See you.

Hello Bill,
Clear, calm and beautiful. The water does seem to go on forever, and the sky is so different from the deep blue of your previous beach shots. It all looks very quiet - but, perhaps, the children are as noisy as everywhere else in the world!
Best wishes....Maggie

Hi Bill,
This scene reminds me of my childhood. I once lived in a place where playing in the sea is my past time. This is a wonderful portrait, the bland sky is not a problem, thanks for sharing.

Hi Bill,
We also have Bajau in the Philippines ... a sea gypsy indeed. Wonderfully captured with excellent image sharpness. I like the high key treatment here to isolate your main subject. Well captured and composed. Excellent work! tfs

Hello Bill. You have placed the two boats in the sweet spot with the boys pedaling against the stilt house. Amazing view in good clarity and sharpness. The contrast is well managed against the endless horizon. Best regards and have a nice day. Jusni

Hi Bill!
what a nice view. I like the composition of the boys and their boats in the foreground, and also is nice the Bajau home in the background. So, you show us everyday life in the environment.

Good picture!! We can see also seaweeds uner water

Bill, this is a fine one too, the subtle blue differences between the horizon and the water make this shot. I think if printed it might be a very hard one to get correct, at least around here with the poor quality of the machines. The fg activity and the stilt house all make this a really nice capture.

Great shot! The position of the kids, the ripples in the water and the house, all work to make the picture awsum. Excellent work.
