  #132 Childhood Memories 		Entry 15 of 20
   
 
Backyard Play       ©2013 cookiejar
Canon PowerShot SX280 HS       15th place, 43 points
1/200s, f4.5, ISO 400, 379mm, ?, Pattern, no flash
 
Post-Processing: Blur and focus point, brightness and resize.       Extra Info: Fond memories of playing with whatever was at hand in the backyard, good to see the tradition continues. Water is endlessly fascinating.
I have treated the image to resemble the Kodak insta-matic prints of my childhood.

Sep 23, 2013		     Very good composition but I wish it was not so blurred - I hope your Instamatic pictures were a bit sharper than this :-) Despite the blur the background is distracting. Water just has to be one of the best memories in all it's forms. Good choice.

Sep 23, 2013		     a little to much blurring but not difficult with an instamatic. mainly because the lens was small with a wide aperture
like the overall concept

Sep 22, 2013		     Just a nice picture! I can imagine what the young girl must be thinking as she watches the water spattering on the ground. You did a nice job setting up the "Kodak Moment" feeling by blurring the edges. Good job!

Sep 22, 2013		     It's true - give a child a watering can and a plot of ground and they can play happily for hours. How did we ever put up with those prints? - guess we didn't have much choice!
