[Leica] The Ice Cream arrived!

[Douglas Barry]

Lluis,
I normally find photos of the backs of people do little for me, but this one 
with both the child's feet off the ground works very well. However, the 
interaction between the pair - mother/daughter - is let down because it's 
impossible for my oldish eyes to see the reaction on the mother's face 
adequately. Maybe my older and thereforefore smaller monitor is just not big 
enough, but I do think that a bigger version - or tighter cropping - would 
help.

Seeing the feet off the ground reminds me of my running days, and how, when 
I took photographs of runners, it was always the one with both the runner's 
feet off the ground which looked best, but, strangely enough, when I was the 
running subject, the photographer - generally my wife - always missed that 
shot or if she got it, had me out of focus! Instead of effortless floating, 
I always seemed anchored to too too solid earth.

Nowadays, I'm a lot more solid than the ethereal sylph-like creature that 
raced up and down mountains, so there is no hope of re-creating Douglas 
Barry - the floating runner!

Anyway, good photograph.. Must have an icecream myself...

Douglas
