On the outside looking in.

I thought I had successfully uploaded this last night, but crash bang whollop went my pc and lo and behold it threw a wobbly and refused to co-operate. So here it is again, hopefully more successfully this time

I have used a shallow dof here in order to seperate the girl from where she is really wanting to be - on that stage.

Thanks to all for the c&cs on the Chevy upload, they are appreciated.

Thanks as ever for bothering.

Malc

may have to click 'n' run today & tomorrow as I am alone at work and might have to actually do something for a changeSad...shhh! don't tell the boss thatWink

You can feel the tension in the little girls body, just desperate to get up there amongst the action.

Loved it the first time, and I managed to vote so goodness knows what happened to it. It's having to imagine the little girl's face that makes this so strong for me.

Quite a sad feel to this one Malc. No one is taking a bit of notice of her and she so wants to be part of the fun. She is dressed very differently to the children on stage too. Was this a festival or similar. Tells a story, super capture.

Moira has said what I thought immediately: wonder what expression she has on her face?

Also, she not only stands out for being alone here, but also for being dressed quite differently.

No doubt she will be up there with them when she grows up meanwhile she will have to dream about it.

Great candid, Malc, and nice use of depth of field to make the girl stand out and draw the eye towards her Wink

I have to agree with the comments made by Barbara (baclark) on this shot, Malc: she summarises my own feelings perfectly.
