To those that doesn't know him, this is Yotam, my son.
This is a special moment in his life, In mine too.
This is the exact moment when he touched the sea for the first time.
A magic moment to last a lifetime.

Such a beautiful moment.

Your son is so lucky to have such a magical moment captured.

Such a beautiful and emotive picture!

Congratulations, and him too, even if he can't understand it now

Beautiful thing. I do think that the baby (not the reflection) is slightly overexposed, maybe you could compensate that in PS?

`gilad Dec 2, 2004

When I took the light metering form the reflection, to get it in the right exposure and depth, the brighter colours, outside of the reflection got slightly over exposed. There is no way to expose both in a perfect way.
I wanted to keep the contrast between the two sides, cause that is what brings the extra depth to the meaning of the picture (two contrasted worlds). Thank you!

a lovely momnt, tho i too would i think prefure him to be the right way up

~ShiverNamelessone Nov 30, 2004

this is the most precious and beautiful image.

i love how the reflection eclipses the reality.

~eunica Nov 29, 2004 Photographer

even now, when i look in the mirror, sometimes I do not recognize the image in the mirror as myself. It's so strange. This would not have had such a potent effect if the image were right side up. but then again, what really is right side up?

Good point

~WhereRwe Nov 29, 2004
