Nicely done Debi. I like how the two boys are on different height it makes the picture very interesting. Good exposure too! ~Christakis

Debi, how did you achieve such exposure in such a challenging lighting (back-lit). Did you shoot Manual.

Thanks Carole, Doug, aam & Mary Anne. This is a very special picture to me too and not only fas a photograph. I spent some wonderful hours with these kids and was amazed at their positive attitude towards life- Debi

I like the way that they're so engaged with each other that they seem not to be paying attention to the photographer at all. Very natural.

Well done, Debi. I think this is one of my favorite photos I've seen from you.

Way to go Debi. It's nice to see a picture with so much action. Great job keeping it from becoming a silouette too. -Doug

Thanks Rod, Penny, Jim, angio & Tommy. I must say that I am always learning from your feedback - debi

Debi this is wonderful with the hands entering and toying with inviolable image center to give us some tension specific to the challenge topic. Clever but I have my eye on you...

PS. JB has already commented on the essentials.. so I guess I can retire TVCAERS or rename to give credit where due to Jim and Rod, e.g.: JBRBTVCAERS. -tv

Agree with Rod - nice job pulling detail out of those shadows. -angioman

Good, as it hits 3 edges. However, the one hand in the center is somewhat distracting to me.

I agree with Rod - this is very well done - congratulations!

You did a fantastic job on the exposure Debi with the strong backlight the subjects could have been thrown into silhouettes. The composition is very strong & it's a great looking picy, the kids seem genuinely happy by the look on their faces. Memorable shot.
