[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I want to be Bresson...well who does not want be one. When I saw this kid standing in a pool of sea water I immediatelly got a reeminition of a jumping man photo of H.C. Bresson. I took few shots, and of course none of them came to my liking. But, I am an opportunist...so I post this one, which is closest to my likings.

The shot was taken on a travel from Helsinki to Rijeka in Croatia. We wanted to see the beach a bit (I hope the name of the beach is right...locals please do help!!!). It was morning about 10 to 11 o'clock and a bunch of people walking and having good time there. The day was cloudy, so I immeditaelly decided to desaturate the photo and add contrast when converting from RAW to JPG.

______________________________

Technical note:

As mentioned above, I did some corrections in sigma's photo pro RAW software converter. I also added sharpness as the shot is slightly out of focus. I played as well with contrast and shadowing. Afterwards came the PS for enahncements of light and shadow features.

Enjoy...Alan.
