Cool shot, Roberto. I think I would crop exactly to the horizon line - it would remove the confusion of those tree fragments. Pity it wasn't framed a fraction more to the left so the watching figure was more complete.

Oh, I love it! All the action is fantastic- and so is that blue water. Maybe it would have been nice to see the whole head of the boy standing on bridge, but other than that- I think its a fantastic shot.

Hello Rob
excellente image
tu as su déclencher exactement au bon moment avec ce plongeon qui dynamise l'image
je recadrerai le haut de l'image en coupant la ligne d'horizon
félicitations

It's good to see people having fun with such poor living conditions.
Very nice decisive moment.

What a great image Rob. I especially like the guy in mid air heading for a big splash. Nice perspective and great subject. I agree with Greg in that you could crop the top of the image to the horizon and not lose any impact of this great image...see WS.

My smiles have run out today, but I'll come back soon.

Best wishes.

Hi rob

This a beautiful slice of life. I really love all your photos of Cuba. I see you have your own style....Keep up the good work.

wondeful picture - good composition, though I really like th eworkshop - it brings out the best in the picture. I think the cropped figure on the left is ok...he looks quite scared and he seems to be clinging onto the right border...The immense amount of activity is really good and not at all confusing.

Lovely little splashes of colour...

Wonderful. I love the fact that you captured the soles of the jumping boy's feet.
