These guys were having a great time. In particular the kid that Gerry was referring to...

i am liking that last image, very nice timing. I reckon you could combine the first 2 into a triptych? I think that would be a cracker for this kid since he had a variation of moves!

i find these to be quite blue/cool, can someone else confirm this? possible hitting them with some warmth may help.

i think this just shows that having a shorter focal length is often not such a bad thing, these work quite well in terms of distance, did you crop these?

A little - if anything a little green/blue

I don't mind that Diptych for the first - a story is told :)

I think I prefer the waveshape and compo of the third to the fourth but the last is cleaner and sharper

Gerry, these are relatively heavily cropped. I guess it's ok as long as I don't want to enlarge too much.

Yeah, I had this dirty polariser on my lens which caused loss of contrast (that's what I assume) so I upped the blacks. This causes higher saturation. I prefer cool to warm but green ain't good. Although the water would have a slight bit of green as well. :wink:

I reckon the last image is the closest in terms of colour :cheers:
