Nothing's Gonna Stop Me!

Uploaded: July 21, 2008

Description

At the beach this weekend, my son, Nathan, decided he was going to go in for a swim! He actually went until the waves were splashing him in the face before he got upset!

Entering into MT. Did this in B&W too but thought color was more summery!

Added contrast, burned a little, and used just a touch of virtual photographer high key effect.

Wright Beach, Dunkirk, NY
Hope everyone had a GREAT weekend!!! :)

OK, I read your title, and I think you should take the g off of nothing... then it would be a quote from Nemo, when Dori is talking to the crabs... lol

Great shot! Love the composition!! I like it in color :) He was just TOO fun that day! #6205673

Jeanine- Good morning my friend. Another wonderful entrry into the MT. the action and colors of the water with its waves is fabulous. Lighting and clarity outstanding. Love his little red and orange outfit. It is so cute to see him being determined to enjoy that water like everyone else. I can just hear the fuss he made when that water hit him in the face.
Am so glad that you all got to enjoy a wonderful day at the beach. Summer fun is the theme and to enjoy it with your family a special time.
Outstanding work
Have yourself a most wonderful day, take care, enjoy #6213020
