A Mother's Love

Candidly captured from my kite cam. These are friends of ours that came out to fly kites and enjoy a day at the beach with some good food and great weather. I liked how the shadows turned out.

I don't know if that's what she's doing, but to me the shadows say the lady is kissing the child on top of the head... sort of an "I Love You".

Great pic!

I like the shadow so much, I'm thinking it would be even better if the actual mother and son were crop'd out of the picture. Maybe.

Great capture! Another crop to consider would be the shadows with the feet only.

rockiteman- Yes! That is what I saw too.

Daniel- Thanks for the heads up! I went ahead and entered. We'll see how it goes!

Brooks- my pleasure.

And thank you to everyone's kind remarks. I think if the people were cropped out though that you lose the sense of this being a KAP pic from directly overhead.

Thanks, JA. I showed that picture to my wife, and she saw something completely different.

That's what happens when you marry a non-kiteflyer....
