This time it is the other way around, your picture, makes the message in your note very effective. I like the effect of the water frozen over the child with the expressive eyes.

Nice effect rendered by the backlight on the splashing droplets, and a good use of the water tap as a compositional detail in yet another absorbing and charming portrait. Good use of the shallow DOF, and the kid does look wet in this angle of the sunlight. Very good.

Bravo Manuel!
Excellent message conveyed through this good-quality and pretty amazing shot!
The light IS fantastic, as you say, and the kid seems to know what he's been doing - like he's telling us the same as you do!
Superb!

Can be a poster for Water Day, but is he closing the faucet? Or opening it more to play with it? Well, knowing kids, he must be opening it :)
The splash of water and the boy's expression are captured beautifully! His skin texture also looks so real! Another great shot! rgds.

Hi Manuel

The 'king of portaiture' strikes again! Superb sharpness & dof, with marvellous backlighting on the upper arm & shoulders, in addition to the tap water. Well done!

Very good light. Very good shot. Nothing much to say here. Just one question... why didn't you use the full 800 pixels? I would love to see this in bigger size.

What a joy (not for the kid which is obviously used to this water pipe) but for me, to see so exiting, so sudden moment of this child‘s life. He will probably not remember for this moment, even to you, but the moment that you catch will remain in my mind for ever.

Thanks Many.

Hi Manny. I've been absent from TE for a few months and I missed a lot of your excellent photos. I particularly like this one because you captured an innocent child during his playful moment. I like the water droplets which I think made this composition great. Of course let's not discount the expression of this cute boy. As usual, excellent composition Manny.

Best Regards.
