Judges' comments:
Like the background; white shirt is crisp; water done well; would like to see fingers on the left; perhaps try a lower angle
Maker's notes:
Photo was taken at a kids Halloween Party on a sunny afternoon. Shot was taken with Aperture Priority set to f/4 to shorten the depth of field and provide a fast shutter speed. Shot at ISO 800 to ensure a shutter speed of 1/500 sec. Kids were coming up out of that cold water really fast. Spot focus and metering was used. I chose to turn the background to monotone because it was so busy and impossible to clone out everything.
