Hi Richard,

Great shot! Very animated. The B&W is a good choisse and because of the POV the crop fits well. Nice sharp details.
Well done!

I thought this must be your photo before I even saw your name Richard. I remember seeing Hannah's photo in the wet pond.

Super action shots - all 3 of them. They were having so much fun, and especially in that Singapore heat.

I always prefer colour, but I just love this cheeky look here. It's just brilliant

Hi Richard,
Great action shot of the little maid, the B&W works well and I like the composition, the f2.8 has given a great DOF, with such a great little model how could you go wrong, her expression is priceless.
Well done

Yay! A perfect combination, Richard. The black and white I love, and the lovley wee girl. The expression on her face is just so precious. The water motion stopped is very impressive in the black and white. Brilliant composition. I would be hard pressed to choose any one of the series over another.
Warm Regards

Really excellent Richard! I love the bit of light at her feet. The line of water leads the eye down and over to the right! Nice stop action on the drops! Some are just frozen in air! No easy to do this on automatic! That poor lazer would hit all sorts of weird spots! You have her super sharp!
***Has she graduated high school yet?? Man she looks older everytime I see her!!

Hi Richard
I'll bet you are having as much fun while snappin away as the kids do. Once again you show us how its done. Converting to mono also a good idea as a shot like this could have been taken several years ago. Nice work

Hi Richard,

You certainly have taken some magnificent photos of your girls in the fountains. I love all of them. I think the black and white works great! I like the fact that black and white brings more focus on the water itself (in my opinion anyway) as there are no color distractions in the background. Her expression is just priceless.

Great shot! Lisa

Hi Richard,
Oooooo... another lovely shot of your beautiful daughter in her great moment of joy. Her expression tells it nicely. The WOW thing is that frozen splash!! It had given a great impact to this nice black & white shot. A yes to me - the B&W tone worked well for this expression, though a colored version might presents the cheerful moment.

What can I say, it's another great capture. The little details like slight OE on her shoulders (on this monitor, at least) are thoroughly forgivable because of the delightful expression you caught here. The composition just shows that you know what you're doing through and through with this stuff.
Nice job!

Oh I love here expression, she is so cute! you captured her very well, even with black and white, I still "can" hear her laughter... (in my head that is... I thought I did! :P ) excellent clarity, sharpness and dof. I like how everything is frozen "in time" it will be a great photos series she can look back when she grow up... :D Lovely shot...


Have a great weekend,

Cheers,
Sweety

Hi Richard,
Correct me if I'm wrong! Did you focus on water not on child's face? In your opinion should the face have a little greater brightness. Now I pay attention on water. But beside of it - very nice and I like it. :)
