Good Morning Everyone,

For you, a little humour, this morning!

This little boy was having the time of his life, riding back and forth through the cooling water droplets of the fountain. What great fun he had, and he giggled with pleasure!

It was a very hot day and the idea of following this little boy must have entered the heads of many grown-ups. But, of course, we are too sophisticated, too reserved! Oh, to be a child again!

The photograph was taken in the main square in Richlieu.

The photograph looks to have been taken in black and white but was, in fact, the result of shooting into the sun. I cropped it and mounted it on a b/g of the fountain, slightly dasrkened for contrast.

Many thanks for your interest.
Please feel free to offer feedback on any aspect of the photograph. Bev :-)

Oh what fun he is having - and I'd love to have been child-like enough to have done it myself!! But I might have got my hair wet!!!
Nicely shot Bev, and the dark silhouette from the sun in the wrong place has come out really well
BRAVO!

Salut, Beverley!

You managed to capture a great and cheerful moment! It is so pleasing to see a kid having so much fun riding bicycle. I remembered my childhood after I saw your shot. The fountain nehind the kid is giving a fantasy feeling to the picture. Great composition with nice framing.

Thanks for sharing!

regards,
Paras Bhalla

Hi Beverley, great shot;) wonderful pov and amazing mood;)

Hello Bev
This is brilliant, seen and well executed, although I am wondering if a high key black and white would have been more appropriate but it looks like fun times for this boy.
Well done
Jim

dear Beverley,
wow! it is very cool!
the boy looks so joyful, and this playing mind is so precious for us.
beautiful silhouette shot of wonderful scene indeed,
thank you for your cheerful and excellent shot,
Akihisa

Hi Beverley,you have created a very watery feel to the shot with the frame full of droplets.
You can sense the exhilaration that the little boy is feeling even though he is silhouetted.
Looking into the sun worked really well for this one.
Well done, a shot to be proud of!
Tfs, regards Jean.
