Positives: Wonderful journalistic image. The tones are straight out of a vintage photo book. A most interesting scene and even more interesting POV - where were you??? I really like the kites (if that's what they are) in the sky and how they leave little trails.

Critical stuff: No

Overall: Most compeling.


Thanks Paul. I shot it from this pier.

Thanks for sharing. Such a compelling perspective. Forces a long look, which does not disappoint.

Nice black and white, I love the detail of the froth the white shirts if the crowd. It is an interesting perspective. It makes me wonder where you were to get this high angle from over the water.

Marvelous. Like they're watching to see if the sea is welcoming...or not.

It's interesting to see everyone of darker skin in-contrast to the bright white clothes. This is a non-typical day at the beach, with what looks like a private school visiting.

A very interesting image that is elevated by the starkness of their school uniform. The b/w works well because of that. And I also really like the kites in the sky.
