Scary But Funny, a photo from Malaga, Andalucia

Photographer's Note

This scene was seen at the festival of children in September in Mijas. Those three were watching a huge octopus balloon. Like the expressions on their faces. Hope you like that shot also.

Hello Malgorzata
a "feel good" shot this so well timed and captured. Full of intrigue and very expressive. The innocence is palpable. Why do we have to grow up? - the answer: so that we can capture perfect moments like this. Wonderful!!

Have a splendid day - Brian.

Czesc Gosia,
sliczne sa te slodkie gebusie, one wychodza zawsze slodko i uroczo, poniewaz sa spontaniczne i z reguly nie pozuja. Wspaniale ujelas te urocze szczesliwe dzieciaczki. Piekne zdjecie i bardzo mi sie podoba. Nic dodac nic ujac. Wspaniala praca.
Serdecznie pozdrawiam,
Barbara

Hi Malgorzata, it is always nice to see the children play, makes the joy of living, seem intrigued and amused by something... Octopus balloon ...super sharp and nice colors, have a nice day, valter

Sergiom (117241) 2011-10-20 5:48

Bonjour Malgorzata,

J'aime aussi leur expression. Ils sont intrigués mais n'osent pas trop s'avancer. Ils se cachent même derrière une toile, mais ne veulent rien manquer.

Amicalement

Serge

Hello Malgorzata

Nice catch of the 3 cute Spanish kids. Vibrant colour & perfect sharpness & dof. Perhaps a tighter crop as the surroundings are not especially interesting. They all seem to be looking left, so I'd crop most of the right away up to the grey jack. Tfs!

paololg (31448) 2011-10-20 7:14

Cześć!
Strasznie miłe zdjęcie. Nie mam słów aby opisać co czuję oglądając zdjęcie. Po prostu:
1) boleśnie bezbłędne i równocześnie radosne
2) przemyślanie spontaniczne
3) piękne
Pozdrawiam

Hi Maggie,

I always love photo of children, they are cute innocent, sometimes children should never have to grow up, then they have to deal with the reality of life :) Love the cheerul and enegy of the shot, it makes me want to smile with them, especially the boy, there is so much joy in his face. Priceless.

Hello Malgorzata,

An Innocence picture, that tells a little bit
a story. Good composition and a great light
management....Good work.

Friendly regards,

bebbetto (122) 2011-11-01 9:33

The picture is very pleasant. The boy looks very fun while the girls seem a little suspicious, especially one on the right.
Great shot, very spontaneous

Gerrit (62042) 2011-11-03 9:30

Hi Malgorzata,
great capture and good framing and light handling.
I like the way you show the differences between the three and the way the little one seems to be the bravest.
Lovely photo.
regards, Gerrit

willperrett (14215) 2011-11-04 1:51

Hi Malgorzata
This is a lovely candid: as you say it's the expressions, but also the tight group the kids have made that makes this photograph. Maybe the background is a little distracting, but as far as I'm concerned, street photography is all about unrehearsed grab shots, where the scene is inevitably documented "warts and all"! I note you've used quite a wide aperture, perhaps in order to throw the background a bit out of focus; maybe an even bigger aperture (f2.8??) would have helped?
Regards
Will

macjake (98438) 2011-11-14 4:10

Hi Malgorzata
yes, how could anyone not enjoy this innocent scene.
especially the boy in the middle!
very cute, very real!
enjoy your day

nobuikehonda (3848) 2011-11-15 9:13

Hello Malgorzata,

I love the title first of all. It is very imaginative. The expressions on the children’s faces are simply delightful. What a lovely photo. I can continue listing all the great points about this image, but your photo speak for itself. How I wish I could go back to their age. Imagine! Almost everything they see is new and full of excitement. I love your photo just as much as those children love what they see out there. It is a great capture. We must thank you for sharing the delight with us.

With my very best wishes,
Have a great week, Malgorzata
Nobu.
