Hey Terez, I live in one of the many suburbs in Southern California. You're definitely right -- there isn't enough shots like this on TE, places where you would not venture into unless you're a local. This is a nice shot, with good composition. I think the whites are a just little over-exposed and colors over-saturated, though. Thanks for sharing.

As a baseball fan in America, I've always heard of stories of kids in Cuba playing baseball with makeshift equipment. But your series on Cuba really adds some vivid images to my head. And this photo just sums it all up. Very nicely done.

Beautifully done! The clarity and details are great, even through a puddle of water and at 1/50 seconds. Perhaps thanks to ISO 160. For me, most amazing is how you can see the shot, adjust camera to the correct settings, compose, aim, and shoot all before they walk away and the scene disappears.

This is a great shot, and it apparently is not getting the attention it deserves from the audience here on TrekEarth. The splash, the water in the air, the rocks, and the couple, all perfectly composed in one shot. The frame you gave the shot goes well with it, too. There isn't really much to complain here. Good work!

One might say their relationship is "on the rocks." :) Very good work: you've created a shot where one could make up so many different stories to go with this scene. Not to mention your composition is excellent as well. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Alex, beautiful composition. It's a great idea to splash together these colors; they make for a pleasure for the eyes. But the colors are somewhat muted -- I think somehow if they were more vibrant the scene would jump out that much more. Perhaps it's because it's so early in the day. In any case, nice shot! Thanks for sharing.

Hi Grant, thanks for sharing such a wonderful scene. And very useful note to go with it too. Now, I'm curious as to why you used a f/3.5 aperture. Given the low-light conditions, why didn't you use the larger f/2.8 that your lens was capable of? Just trying to pick your brain a bit. Thanks!
