Thank you, kids.

Recently, I had the opportunity to shoot (photographs of) kids at a painting competition. This photograph from that shoot finished among the "Honorable Mentions" of a photo contest. I suppose i owe them kids one. Happy Children's Day.


Update2: Here's the photograph

Crooner,

I say "great composition,". The two hands that are at work say so much about the picture's beauty. A great one, I must say.

Happy Children's Day.


*cheers*

Thank you, Soul. Those hands locked me in rapt attention.

You only have to look at the hurt on those hands. I hope the picture conveys what the li'l hands are put through everyday and what they'd rather do.

Talking To My Soul said...

Crooner,

I too had noticed those scars. But I was not sure if I should comment for, I did not know how the hurt came up.

Great work, once again. I sure loved the picture but was sad deep inside. Hats off to the eyes that captured it.


*cheers*

Soul,

Thanks for the appreciative comment. I tried to raise the emotional quotient in the photograph. If my photographs are worthy of the thousand words they speak, i'll be a happy photographer.

Talking To My Soul said...

Crooner,

The picture is worth a million words. Period.



*cheers*

@ warmsunshine

Thank you, Mehreen. I did not intend the photograph to be like anything but then that's how it's come about. :-)

Glad you liked it. Keep in touch.

Cinderella said...

Cinderella said...

@ Cinderella
I've noticed it all along. :)

Your friend hosts his photos on photobucket which again is blocked from my office... so i cant see them :-(. Will find my way there again at a later time.

I'm sure your captions will be very befitting. Perhaps you would do me the same favor when my photoblog is up? Wouldja?

Trevor Penn said...

@ Femin Susan
Thank you. I hope you have a good one as well.

Trevor Penn said...

@Diana
Thank you, Diana. Sometimes I wonder if it is an ordinary picture of a great subject.
I aspire to be the guy who takes great pictures of an ordinary subject.

Trevor Penn said...

@ Cinderella
Well, you've got to pay royalty to Royalty, right? :-)
How does one "get" copyrights? Goodluck with whatever you're doing. :-)

Thanks for the comment. Btw, you owe me an explanation about some general inference you drew from my posts. I've got a killer memory. :D ;-)

rashi_pratibimb said...

Trevor Penn said...

@ rashi
You need some shock therapy. Apparently it helps with memory issues. ;-)i
