I really enjoy this photo but I don't see it fitting the challenge that well because there are interesting things to look at throughout the background. So I don't see it as an effective use of negative space in order to support the main subject. It seams like it would fit a "perspective" challenge or some other one. It is vey good though with good clarity and bright colors. -T
This is the ocean, or a large pool? The people in the background are distracting to this shot - too much background activity makes the negative space area lose its contrast with the subject.
This is a very interesting pic, it took me a while to realize those are swimmers way down there. I can't imagine where the father and son must be standing. I really like this a lot. 8
Interesting idea, but I do not see how the father and son links in with the beautiful blue ocea with lots of people swimming in it.
Loving the blue, it would have been great if perhaps you homed in on a chosen group of people/person close enough to see details but keeping lots the blue all around. =)
I have a feeling that the topic police will punish you for the breaks in your negative space. It is an excellent picture, however. And personally, I find it very much in keeping with the topic. The perspective is unusually interesting.
