Guess what I don't like about these shots would be that I didn't take a lot more the parade itself into the frames to give more significance or a back story of the shots; If I didn't mention that there was a parade I bet you guys wouldn't even have known! LOL Another lesson learned there. But still worth a share I think =]

Hi

These photos are looking nice. I would had done a step to the left to see the walking crowd to tell the story. But even though the shots are nicely taken.

I would'nt tilt my camera by the way, it makes it look a bit off. Did you tried Black and White?

Greetings,
Roy

thanks for sharing Shot 3 is really nice. Juxtaposes the fun of the parade against the boredom of the child. Rally like this one, C. U.!

Thanks Roy! Yep, that's what bothered me during post, I wanted to have a little more of the parade but I guess I was too focused at the kid that time. I'll probably try and adjust the tilting in LR4, cause now that you mention it, it does look off LOL

I'll also give Black and White a try =]

Thanks Dennis! Yep, this made for an interesting photo that's why I really had a itchy trigger finger to take his shots while he is bored from the parade. =] Hopefully another opportunity like this strikes again and I'll have a little more of the parade in the frame to add more depth =]

So cute.

They're great Christian..
