thanks Dina, I thought the center compositon and square format are the least distracting thing to put the attention on her.

thanks a lot Hanggan, she was far away from me (300 mm lens) and really by herself. It was really a moment when she just enjoyed finding that little shell all by herself.

thanks Cheryl, yes its pure joy. She was all by herself and totally focused on looking around in the sand. It was fun to watch her from a long distance and my presence didn't affect her at all. You know what I mean, often kids behave so different when they think they are unwatched.

thanks Carsten! When I saw this photo is just asked for a square crop. Actually since I got my medium format camera I like the square more and more.

That is so true, David. By using a tele lens and giving some 'room of privacy' for your kid, we will get the opportunity of capturing his honest reaction..:) Congratulations, my friend.

Well done to retain detail in shadows and highlights on such a bright day at the beach. Curious if you used fill flash or had to tweak much in PS after the fact?

thanks Louise, I didn't use a fill flash (don't even have a flash :) ) There was a soft layer of thin clouds so the sunlight was not too harsh and the bright sand reflected some light. I didn't do any contrast salvaging in PS here. Just the B&W conversion.
