This is excellent as an entry especially with that A and your title. Good angle for sure. The aspect overlooking the water, the background hills and sky all add to a sense of adventure these two little guys are centre of. Great clarity and vantage point. Well presented.

This is an unusual capture. That you captured the children looking through the letter A is intriguing. It seems symbolic for their imaginations of a feature full of adventure. Their poses show the they have fun. Your photo has good depth and is excellent focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. I enjoy the sharpness of detail and the realism of color and light. The boys are well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

I just love this photo Steve, and it is indeed a great entry into this contest. You are so right about children, they are the same all over the world, and seeing these two boys crawling under the big A, made me smile. Hope the one on the right did not tip over. LOL

The background is truly lovely as well and the letter A is standing out from it in an excellent way. The light is falling so lovely on the boys and the foreground.

The photo is pin sharp showing truly clear and well defined details both in the boy's jeans and the foreground wall. The exposure is spot on.

The cropping is just perfect, and with the boys and the letter centered it is a very fine balance in the composition. I think this is a truly lovely, sweet and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Hi Steve, What a SUPER COOL,FUN entry for the alphabet contest.! My first reaction was a gigantic smile! The letter "A" would have been pretty cool all by itself but those two boys take it to another level. Love the little guy with his feet in the air. I am definitely seeing this as the winner of the contest! Good Luck My Friend! :o) Nancy

Absolutely perfect photograph to enter the contest and win.

Great details, colors and framing the children with the letter A which is beautifully framed with the sea and sky.
I like the presentation for the combination of children, nature and human made item. Technicality well done with wonderful depth of focus.

Well well presented and great description.
Thank you for sharing.
