Beautifully captured in that great light we had, Bill. As abundant as these characters were, it was very tough getting the pose, light angle, and low POV. You've got it all, and I like the raised foot and nice detail. Well done.
Head angle, raised foot, nice light, and an excellent subject to sensor plane orientation combine to make this one excellent image. Ain't it great when everything falls into place just as we plan it :)
with love, artie

Super nice Bill, nice capture and glad 1/2500 covered the "walk on water!" Great HA, sharp, and wonderful that gorgeous foot in prominent! If you have more canvas, I'd might try more BG. Difficult to get them in the open and frozen, well done.
As in most of the images I keep and post, the Head angle is critical to make the viewer feel as they are part of the image. This one is perfect. Even with all the clutter he pops out because he is looking right at me. Colors and details look great too. Well done Bill
