Judges Comments

The author has captured the excitement and sheer joy of childhood playtime. While the lighting is hard to deal with, the image capture has the side of the face lit and the play of
light and shadow on the body complements the sense of energy in the scene. Certainly a time where the emotional content is more important than technical perfection and
this is what has been captured. I would consider a tighter crop at the top or some other means of reducing the impact of the busy background.
