    A walk in the beach...

    Took these in a recent trip at a nearby beach. Subject is my kid and the both poses were spontaneous. The one where he is walking along the beach with his back towards the camera may break some photographic "rules" but I liked it due to the feeling of peace and solitude...also he seemed to try to follow the other footprints which were mine...kind of cute...

    Re: A walk in the beach...

    I like them both. the 2nd is my favourite out of the two though. The shadow is really nice in the first one, and it leads the eyes a bit in the photo. i wish his eyes weren't closed.

    The 2nd one is the better of the two, love the crop, the composition is nice with the footsteps leading the eyes in to the photo.

    Nice shots...I like the 2nd better...more artistic feel to it. The exposure is right on , really nice warm light.

    The thing that pops into my head is that this second shot will look better if it was taken with a slight lower angle (kneeling).
    Nice pics:thumbsup:
