jump
The photo was taken in a newly planted rice field which contain brownish water and cropped small grass. The color of the water has varied saturation and give better dimension.
I use three children as model and asked to jump freely with happy expression.
I shot from the middle of rice field, avoid unnecessary movement to keep the water flow without wave. The wave of water can distort the shape of three children reflection. These children stand 80 cm higher than me, my camera was faced to low angle and before they jump, I throw small stone to create subtle wave. Low speed was chosen to capture this with neutral pic style. In post processing, I rotate 180 and add my other photo of the moon to create better composition.
