Hide and seek Photo

Photographer’s Note

In real I could not find a name for the photo. They were playing hide-and-seek game ( I should better have a greater f value for seeing the background boy-closed his eyes to let others time to hide). Sometimes it is too late to change the lens for correct moment.

Hello Figen,
Superbe B & W ! portrait très expressif et bien cadré. Il y a un excellent contraste, et le flou en arrière plan est super esthétique. Bravo !

Hi Figen,
Great B&W portrait with fantastic expression on the boys face. The background is well framed and interesting as well. Great composition,
Regards

Hey Figen..oh how i would have loved to see the entire wheel in the frame...the of focus wheel..that would have been stronger than the boy himself..you could actually draw a connection between the wheel and the boy..the fact that he has to live the entire circle of life..as symbolized by the wheel..

I like this anyway

Merhaba Figen,

A great playful portrait. Excellent bl/w. The wheel in the background is a great element in the composition. This is just great work. Congratulations!

Benny

Another nice off-centered portrait Figen
I wonder about how would it look with a conversion to plain b&w?!
Nice WE

Hello Figen,
This boy is quite fantastic. Those eyes and that hint of a quick smile. The wheel balances the roundness of the boy's face. It also indicates that these are kids confined to play in the street, not in any ready-made playground, planned by urban developers.
Kind regards,
Gert
