Playing around with fill-flash, under exposure & ground level perspective. I was lucky enuf to capture one of those moments that cannot be posed or planned, it just has to happen.

You were quite seriously robbed in score, but sadly I'm not entirely surprised. You did, however, merit e301 and posthumous comments during the challenge which means a whole lot more than score.
Great image; dramatic, radical (at least for here) and highly dynamic. Has a sense of motion, of relationships, of reality. Slightly crazy too, which is always good.
one is trying to fix things, the other one just lets it hang out. there is a whole novella in this photo. I am perfectly happy with nostalgic sepia treatment. I'm ready to cry into my beer over this photo. I want to go back to my life and unbutton it.
