Playing with B&W processing.

This is an intriguing image. I am assuming your intent was to portray joy and playfulness. But something you've done here gives it a spooky, forboding quality that I like lots. Not sure I can verbalize what it is that gives it this quality. Something about: the bright light on the child with darkness(darker) all around...almost like an atomic blast; the swoop of the slide that drops out of thin air, that overwhelms the small child; the dark townscape in the background; the angle of light which seems to emanate from the ground, lighting up the sand in an eerie way; the ground-level perspective which somehow makes it seem that the child is going to slide down into some unknown oblivion. Will be interesting to hear others' take on this image. Well done. Regards, J

Nice shot!

Great work - you child glows!

I love the way the child is sliding from the darkness into the light. Great capture!
