    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…
