First off when you were camera in hand shooting you realize a compositional element exists based upon their feet and shadow. Then it takes only some patience and luck to have them run through your frame to give you a chance to capture pixels. Post processing, all you need do is flip the image & you have this really neat image. Kudos!
I love the idea behind this image, very unique and the colors within the image really make it pop. The idea of flipping the image and having the shadows upright rather than the legs or bodies forming the shadow was also a very unique idea. Throughout the image it seems to be very balanced and the use of thirds is very relevant, the larger shadow being placed in the upper third and the smaller shadow being placed in the lower third gives the image a nice contrasting look. The amount of light used is very nice, you were able to accomplish a nice color scheme along with a nice fade from brights to darks in your shadow. The image itself is very unique and creates a happy mood. ~~ Philip Wyatt Broomhead III~~
This photo is extremely unique, and I've never thought about capturing a picture from this perspective. I don't believe any improvements could be made to this photo. There were no elements of composition used when taking this photo, and I think adding an element would have ruined the whole idea of it. The light is technically coming from the top but in the image it is coming from the bottom because of the angle the picture was taken at, and the light is very rich because it is sunlight. The impression left by this photo is interesting, because you can see the shadows from the boys and see exactly what they're doing but you can't actually see them, only their legs. - libby
This image is very unique. I love how you flipped the image upside down giving it a new perspective to look at. I also love the shadow on the left side it makes me think of peter pans shadow (: An element of composition you used was rule of thirds with the peoples legs at the bottom of the image. A suggestion: I wonder if you waited a second after if the line could create a leading line effect. The light helps darken the shadow and makes the viewer's eyes draw to them instead of the people first. Suggestion: I wonder if the shadow in the bottom could be erased. Megan Elmer
