I've been meaning to post this.

Took a couple of weeks ago at the QVB. I like the shot because of the contrast with the boy and the strong red wall but also the other elements in the photo. Its kinda quirky. Not award winning of course but not bad either.

What does everyone else think?

Nice capture. The composition is sophisticated.

I can't help but think how good this would be if the exit and fire signs were not there. However as it is a location shoot you can't always have everything :lol:

As you pointed out I love the contrast between the buy and the wall, the lighting is spot on. Even the way his right heel is slightly off the ground works.

:D

Is there an after shot with a trickle of water on the floor?

Looks like he couldn't hold it.

Cheers.

Thanks for the kind comments folks.

The mother was actually nice enough to stand aside and in return pointed her where Darling Harbor is.

vikin70: Don't know what the hell he was doing. Just standing doing that.

W00DY: It would have been difficult to man-handle the child and re-position him somewhere else for the sake of the craft :D

Wocka: hahah, yeah it sure looks like that :D
