Hi Tekla,

This is a very sweet photograph. I like the shadows of the children that you captured in the photo. I wonder how the photo would have been different had you lowered your lens to the childrens' height.

Thanks for the comment geotography. Sweet indeed, one of them is my daughter having a stroll with her cousins for the first time.

I was actually shooting at the children's height, from the hip (literally, though i was peeking at the angled/twisted LCD). But then I was just too far from them and neither me nor my P&S 3x zoom could catch up, so I just clicked (and cropped generously). Next time, I'll make sure not to stray too far.

Now, I'm wondering if I did the crop right? I was motivated by the kids' shadows into getting more out of this snapshot.

Any thoughts?
