About the Image(s)
This photo was taken during the PSA 3rd gathering in Sri Lanka in the village in Galle. While walking the village the 3 kids come around the corner riding their bike. What a nice surprise..As you can tell from the original I deleted the blue truck, extended the front of the bike and light up the kids. I believe there's more I can do to make the kids with their bike pop.
Use of Nikon Z-9 with Nikkor Z 760-20MM f2.8
Setting ISO 640- 91MM f5 1/16-- sec

Grab shots like this are often the best. the children seem really pleased to have their photo taken. In the image below I have selected the boys and brightened them. Then I have darkened the background slightly. I then cloned out the bit behind the boys head, Finally I have cropped a little. Posted: 03/02/2025 09:29:03
Brilliant Sophia. I like the direction David went with but without so much contrast in the boys faces. You could play with the balance between them and the background…darken the background a bit more so you need less brightening of the faces Posted: 03/08/2025 16:38:57
Such a fun photograph! I love the delighted faces of the boys. Mark's suggestion would be worth trying. I also suggest desaturating the green a bit.
