More skaters
More skaters at Bushnell Park's winter skating rink. I like the boy's open-mouthed joy at how fast he was going . . . that sweet face! . . . and the girl's hat and concentration!
Oh, I LOVE that first shot!! The look on his face, the open mouth spells JOY and FUN in capital letters!! And, hey, I think I'd like a hat like that one in the third pic!! Hope you have a fun, wonderful day, Jack! Enjoy!
Great shots Jack. The young ones expressions are a joy to see. I love that hat too.
Jack I take pictures on the way to work early in the morning because traffic is light and I can stop and step out of the car quickly. Finding parking during weekdays downtown is too much work for a photo.
that top shot is priceless, jack. looks almost like a norman rockwell painting.
ReplyDeleteThree excellent images, each one in its own way!
ReplyDeleteYour photos prove with any doubt that skating is "a real trip" for kids. So glad that it's provided for them and for bigger kids too. Any adults?
ReplyDelete"without any doubt"...
ReplyDeleteThat top shot is fantastic. The joy and the action is great. But, I really do love that at in the bottom photo.
ReplyDeleteLove this set of images Jack! Really wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI agree about Norman Rockwell!The boy seems also to be cold, look at those red ears!
ReplyDeleteI love his open mouth and all the motion going on around him!

Wonderful shots Jack. That first one makes me smile!
ReplyDeleteLove the first shot too!
ReplyDeleteThe first shot is brilliant but I'm so glad she isn't texting and skating at the same time. That would have been a feat!
ReplyDeleteLove the action in the first shot!
ReplyDeleteThree more fine portraits. I loved to skate when a kid. Not so much anymore. First of all I can't find any ice!
ReplyDeletePlayed this morning. It was 36; and the the wind came up! Yowweee! All I can say is I broke 100. But it was hard!
Great shots Jack. The young ones expressions are a joy to see. I love that hat too.

Love that first shot!
ReplyDeleteLove the top one - short sleeves, gaping mouth, motion.
ReplyDeleteLoving these photos you took at night to the skating rink. Thanks, Jack, for bundling up and heading out. Your photos are filled with joy.
ReplyDeleteNice action shot! Guess some people can't look away from their phones for even a moment. :)
ReplyDeleteAll are great but I love the top shot!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Speed is best....when you're young:)
