Lean on me

Description

Took this photo of kids swimming not far from their houses on stilts by the sea. The kids had this natural bonding that when I asked them to come closer, the oldest informed me the water gets deeper from where I was. So I told them to move back. He instead carried his younger companion to safety. It was a sweet gesture.

Exif: F Number: 4.5, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/125 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 163.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 40D

Hi Jojie,
This is a good one :) I smiled when I saw the photo. Maybe because I can relate to the kids. Ligo din ako dati sa Roxas Blvd after cutting classes lol
Anyway, a deserving photo. Di ko pa nasisilip yung first pero panalo sakin to =) #6218260
