Bike, beach and ball (which you cannot see)

We were taking a rest on the beach, when this kid arrived, parked his

bike in the sand, and started playing with another at the right...

he's receiving a ball, here.

 

I liked the contrast of the static bike and the gesture of the boy...

should I have done something different?

 

Comments on composition and other issues are very much welcome...

Fabulous shot - beautiful - 7/7

Neat shot! Hard to believe it happened that way (I do believe you though :-) . This really would've been a slam-dunk if you could've grabbed a little more color out of the sky (you used a polarizer though didn't you?) or from somewhere else like the ball... Nice work though. p.s., I think this shot is best without the context of him playing catch so that the viewer wonders if he just stopped on the beach for some random exercising or something.

..y-a-h-o-o.., I loved it , can you make it B & W , I think it would look even better ...

sand in the old bike. fit body. and reflections is perfect. Frame(your crop) is very cool.

nicely done. lack of ball leaves more to imagination. Might be interesting in BW.

Nice, simple composition with wonderful reflections. Well done.

Funny shot. At first sight, I can't see what you could have do better. For this sort of shot, the simplest is the best.

Great fun on the beach. I love the reflections very much. Regards, Uwe.

Great shot. I like the contrast of bycicle color against sand/sea ... and the reflections too. Looking at the picture I feel 'serenitৠ(what's the english word for 'serenit৿?).

Funny!

Simple pictures are best, but most difficult to take. You have done this very well. Perhaps I would have cropped it a bit tighter, but it is very good as it is.

Morocco by bike? That is one of my old dreams. Your pictures make me feel I am travelling freely, concious, enjoying. Manuel.

I would include a little more sky and a bit less of sand, but this is my personal opinion. Anyway it`s a great shot

Great catch!

Yes, I see what you mean. Similar in a way! I think your composition is nice. The only permutation is the position of the figure. I think it's an interesting form he has like this. At first I thought it was tai chi he was doing.

???I studied the juggler's movement during 2 hours before shooting??And I I found a perfect place so as to get a perfect view of the scene?Then I shot the juggler during 2 hours with different timing/exposition

Thanks for your advice/
