about the proper settings for taking beautiful pictures of rain and
other types of movement, here comes more splash! Combining forces, add
children to all that water and the result is magazine quality. Promise.
There
is a new swimming pool area where I live, so I obviously had to go try
my camera at the water fun zone. Children will always play in these
places so there's no doubt you will get wonderful photos with minimum
effort. All you have to do is be lazy in a shady corner and click the
shutter every now and then.

Waves
and waves of pretty water drops every direction, these kids will make
your children photography portfolio shine instantly. Get a few bushes in
the background, for a touch of green, sun filtered through the branches
of a tall tree and there, magic!

Everybody
can take lovely photos like this, but if you want to go the extra mile,
you should be a better observer than the rest of the participants in
this field. Watch carefully and notice, what do they do? How do they do
it? The child from the photo above was running up and down in the feet
basin, just to splash water everywhere around, so to capture that I shot
the exact moment he was flexing one of the legs in the process of
running, while he almost reached the end of the basin. Full dynamics in
just one photo, thus the image carries a strong impact.

Now
let's go the seaside for one bit and watch the kids playing in sand.
Let's watch them go into the water, let's watch them putting on swimming
goggles, looking for treasures underwater. A good photographer looks a
lot, presses the button a little.

Children
are really good subjects if you know how to capture their essence.
Check out how they interact with each other, if they're warm and open,
friendly or selfish, do they play together or not, how do they play
together? Observe, observe, observe, you will be captivated by their
behaviours and the way their social contact changes. If you're
captivated enough, I guarantee you will be able to photograph what is
essential. Some kids will come up to you and ask to see the pictures,
others will shy away from the camera and lose their charisma, but there
will be some who will start posing for you and that's such a pity,
because there goes your natural shots. The moment they know about you
photographing them and start striking poses for the camera is the moment
you lose the wow factor because the shots will turn out artificial and
there is no way you can fix that in photoshop later. Nope. Secrecy is
your only chance. Hide under an umbrella, toes in the sand, away from
their busy eyes so that you'll pass unnoticed and you can play the
paparazzi just fine.

This
is the only photo that ever turned out good once the child knew I had a
camera in my hands and was getting ready to take a picture of him. The
exception that proves the rule.

Seriously, hide. Hide and hunt the details, they will top everything else.
