Hi Karen,
A playful time - a good idea for all ages. Nice colors and perspective. The action gets a tad blurry, but it actually helps to demonstrate movement. TFS. Gerald

Hi Karen,
Great action shot of these carefree youngsters goofing around on the beach.
Wonderful happy expression on the one boys face and he look on his friends acrobatics.

Hi Karen. Nice shot, well timed to catch the peak of the action. The blur of the young guys legs implies movement also. Wonderful colours and light. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good weekend, Paul.

Hello Karen,
The joys of youth and you have captured them perfectly. The image has a great sense of dynamism and the expression on the face of the lad admiring his mate's antics says it all. Thanks for sharing.

Hi dear Karen,
Wonderfull scene full of joy and dynamism.
Even 1/125 exposure, the quick jump of the boy in foreground is slightly blurred which is allways good for such captures as it gives a perfect feeling of the movement.
Nice geometry and simple but good colors and very nice warm late afternoon light.
TFS and best regards

HI Karen,
Nice image where the low speed gives good motion blur, I see the elaborate art of capoeira has even reached remote Philippines !
Have a nice day JY

hi Karen

I think you must be in a jolly mood because this is a fun photo to watch and you were happy to shoot. I am surprised to see you used a tripod for this, because action shot like this is too quick for the setup. But the effort is worth it because the action is very well captured to show motion and a fine 1/125s to freeze the other boy.

Great work.

tfs, bill

Hello Karen,
very good timing to capture the boy in full action. I really can feel the movement because of the blurred boy standing on his head. Wonderful soft light and good contrast between warm shades of brown and the tones of blue. Congratulations.
Best wishes,
Helmut
