A very charming image. The boy running in the left side and the boy on the truck looking at him are well placed in the composition and add a lot of extra warmth to the whole scene.

Superb capture , right moment right place , love the contrast between east meets west here Michael, my thinking behind this, is the way the backpacks stand out with there ever so western commercialism logos against the eastern primitive cart bus.

Also your framing and dof of such a natural scene matches the boyish joyful expressions on there faces it looks like the fun is about to start, strange that I see no girls here, must be a story behind that.

So much that is pleasing to view here in this top shot , my viewing has been enriched by this ...BRAVO

Very good shutter speed you used to freeze the motion.
Agree with Goran abo the legs.

ninadev (5377) 2004-01-09 19:01

That is just great! Almost a movie that stops on a still image. The action is superbly captured and the DOF just perfect to give a very sharp image on the kids and a slightly blurred background. I wonder fi the little one to the left made it get in the "truck".

What a picture Michael. I like the way the kid is looking at his friend trying to jump in the truck. I like the diagonal composition of this picture!

Superbe photo qui dιmontre bien la vie dans ce petit village, pauvre mais combien heureux semblent ces enfants. Trθs bien rendu. Bravo.

This shot just bring me back 20 something odds years when I and my friends were doing the samething to every taxi that came across our path. Composition is so dynamic the only nitpick that I could muster is the feet of the kid. Great, great shot. Thank you

An excellent shot that captures the 'decisive moment' with the two youngsters clambering aboard. With the missing legs, this would have been absolutely perfect. But it is great anyway, Michael.

Nice DOF

Excellent ! I love this picture ! Did the last kid catch the truck ?

orme (7219) 2004-01-13 3:36

An excellent shot. I love the action in it - well captured, Michael. While the photo shows the rural poverty in China, I like the children's happy faces and their trendy backpacks - which I see Hong Kong carrying everyday to school. Thank you for sharing it.

This is a phenomenal candit shot. Great focus and shot just at the right moment. Extremely well executed. Well done.

Could be India..... same thing...... I love this picture.....I feel like I want to see everywhere with my own eyes, after looking at pictures like this!

Kenny10pin (19301) 2004-02-24 21:19

Excellent image, I havent been to Zhong Dian yet, but maybe I will.

Well captured and you have caught them at the right time, excellent Dof and lovely expressions on their faces, I too feel sorry for the person driving the vehicle.

Thanks for sharing

morganommer (765) 2004-03-03 23:07

good moment.
it's a modern take on a Doisneau image.

naxius (16685) 2004-08-18 5:57

Hi Michael,

I really love the action in this pic: everyone's up to something. They're either clambering on, running up, or moving stuff around. It's so chaotic, and so real. The tones are fabulous, and the focus is just right on the area of interest. Great stuff.

This is just adorable - a really beautiful capture of a childhood memory..(although I cannot say I have ever done that!).

This is charming and makes me smile...sweet...

Standa (1877) 2007-02-09 2:57

Good DOF, colours, radiant faces....Words are needless because it is the perfect moment!
Congratulation!

Hi Michael, A well times composition showing the action in small villages all over China. It is well cropped and the notes make a good story of life in another part of the world many will never see with their own eyes. TFS. Murray.

This picture just remind me what happened in Java, Indonesia (especially in my city, Yogyakarta) more 10 years ago(approx)..Little bit different style, a cow cart that allowed children and local people free to joint to go to their home...very nice ambience.

On this picture, I interesting with the modern stuff(bag) that used by them...its contrast with their daily life....and the important things is they very happy...

Thanks for Sharing Michael..

Best regards,
