This photo is a designers' dream. Good composition, rhythm, flow, contrast, color --you really hit the mark. The tossed water reads almost like calligraphy. I love the energy and the choreographic nature of this image. It's like a dance frozen in time.. This is really a lovely shot!

Great face, great energy, and so joyful. This young lady is having a ball! This is a tough shot to capture since shooting through those plastic balls is tough. Everything has to line up. The light is nice, too. Good job on the post production!

Now this is a moment! I think this is a perfect action shot, and is exactly the kind of photo I was hoping to see when I set up this challenge. This child has a great face, and there is so much energy and expression in his shape. A fabulous capture.

I wanted to comment on this photo not to speak to the technical aspects, but to recognize the capture of a special moment that we photographers never catch in time. This authentic expression of friendship and joy can't be staged. Thanks for sharing this.

I chose this image as a personal favorite since it takes me back to my own childhood spent playing in the woods and creeks in north Florida.. I know this green light. This is a nice story photo which captures a moment of discovery, exploration and friendship. A lovely capture.

For this contest I would like to see your photos of children at play. It can be in any setting, and can have one or more children at playing in the image. Really try to capture that sense of wonder, imagination, joy and abandon that children bring to their play. No adults in the shot please. Images can be in colour or monochrome. I am looking forward to seeing your images.
