These kids are cute but a real pain in the butt to shoot. One is always sick and the other is about ready to get sick. When they're healthy they're usually off in two different directions. The only thing that holds their attention is food, more specifically, sweet treats. Kids are just like puppies, they'll do anything for food. This one was shot with a slow flash and a rear sync to capture the dying sunlight. Lots of fun nevertheless.
The shot is reminiscent of the scene in the film, A River Runs Through where the one brother returns from college and is watching the other fly fishing and he sees him doing something completely unique, rainbow fishing, the art of placing the line with the reflective properties of the sun attracing the fish beneath, or perhaps watching Dora 'da cat doing what he did on a small Malibu wave so far advanced of others that they didn't have the slightest idea what slide slippin' was, that's what this picture is. so far advanced, most won't know what you've done or how or even care.
Wow, this is incredible! The blues in their eyes are intense when contrasted with the golden sunlight dramatically bursting through. The dark sky also adds another realm of contrast to this beautiful image. You will probably hear something about the tilted horizon, but I want to put this on my wall and these are not even my kids. Fantastic shot.
