G’day Cyril,
This is a joy to view!
Great kiddie action that looks so good in B&W.
Your framing has been far too tight but the action and “cute” factor carries the shot well.
Excellent exposure in good light, great depth of field, nice sharp focus and a good tonal range with lovely contrast.
Also you timing was spot on.
Enjoyable work!

Great photograph, perfect timing! Works well in B&W, contrast in their T-shirts and repeating forms add a lot :)

Great Job, how many times did you have to shot this one to get them all off the ground? I know this task is not an easy one…
