Turn it in BW with chanell mixer.

And some dodging and burning.

It was actually taken in light rain, where I was waiting my friends who were diving just there on the left.

This photo is dedicated to my ex-girlfriend. I was going throu hard times, and I was thinking (siting on the beach) about my future and saw this two children having a good time.
Miss you baby...
That is way the photo is dark.. :)

Thx to everyone for votes..
I still cant belive.

Well, it's a wonderful and playful shot, but you should enjoy it on the front page while it lasts.. Dodging and Burning is illegal in basic editing. :/

This has such an LOTRish feeling to it. The kids looks just like two hobbits. Thank you on behalf of the world for this picture.

Maybe a little overdone in the vignetting. The gloomy look doesn't quite fit the joy you are trying to illustrate...

It kind of looks like these kids are running towards a storm, which takes away from the title. Nice capture though. I'd say top 10

The editing really makes this special. And, while there seems to be a lot, it doesn't feel overdone. Love your tonal range, composition, DOF. 9
