This is a beautiful photograph. The joy expressed here is undeniable. This is the essence of what children are all about. They are the same the world over.
What an image of youthful joy. Kids gathered and playing after school. Unfortunately, I haven't seen anything like this since I was a kid. All the children around here are in organized sports and simply do not just hang out and have fun.
I haven't read the other comments - I'm sure some of them say "great action" but I see more than that. You've captured the emotion of children playing and being carefree in the most spontaneous of ways. This is a wonderful capture. It is full of depth both technically and emotionally.
