Hi Mel,
I like this, just the two elements of the umbrella and the boy taken against the swirling brown waters from a great point of view.
Regards
Wanda

Hello Mel,
Welcome back with a real camera and adorable shot. The composition is great here. I liked the placement of the umbrella and the expression of the child. He still looks happy and hopefull even among the muddy flood.
Very interesting shot indeed.
Well now you have a Nikon, and a wonderfull POV of a photographer. Go on:)))
best regards
Sibel

Hello Mel,
An original shot from a very good POV. I like the contrast between the white umbrella and the red teeshirt. The brown background is quite original but works very well.
Best regards,
Gert
