Mary Anne, I really love this photo. You captured an excellent moment. It' sso clear to see different expressions and emotions. This is a very good picture and an excellent candid!

"Nicely framed little people" says kiki - I can't say it any better so I'll leave it at that. What are they looking at? In a ft. Lauderdale hotel they have a pool with a window like this inside, downstairs in the restaurant. I remember my daughter and her friends taking turns watching each other swim!!

One Word: Fantastic.

Nicely framed little people, quite a find. It certainly has a fancy "United Colors of Benetton" look to it :)

Thank you for your comment, Lydia. I tried squaring it off with the skew tool, which improves the composition, but I think this one looks more spontaneous and candid.

THIS is adorable, Mary Anne. The only thing that would make it perfect for me is if it were dead on straight from the back. But, I know 'candid' is so unplanned. It's still quite wonderful. And with the variety of the girls it could be a politically-correct advertisement. *smile* ~Lydia

I don't think you could get this any better even if you tried to set this up. Great scene of the moment in the lives of these girls. Nice one Mary Anne.

Great capture - particularly like the 2nd from the left who is doing her own thing
