Description Seiga and Koega. These are the closest I will ever have to sons. On the left we have 8 year old Koga...the showman, obviously. Then there is Seiga, the artist and dreaded pigeon chaser!

We are still learning each other's language, but we seem to manage just fine

Two elements are needed to take pictures of children playing:
Patience: to capture THE moment
Speed: cause they ARE fast! (not only in motion but in mood too )

And you seem to have just the right amount of both because this shot is beautiful and the kids are adorable!
Apparently you survived the day! Congratulations!!

impressive depth of field and... the subjects are just too nice, so friendly and heartwarming....



one question though... why is that the closest you'll get to sons? [answer not necessary, I was just curious]

blackzer0 [2003-11-27 16:42:07 +0000 UTC]

Successful shot! the color levels are just right, so is the depth of field. And of course the kids are great posers

The mischief and glee in this photo are contagious. Even the title looks good.

Great job. Moo!

Seiga-kun, Koega-kun wa kawaii desu ne
(I still don't know whether to use 'soshite' in this context...how do you say 'and'? lol)
I see Koega has that wacky face pulling act down to a T. lol
Very good shot, I love the vibrancy and playfulness.

A turn on? Oooer...hope your lady doesn't find out that you said that
Nihongo ga sukoshi dekimasu...(one of the phrases I've got in my head due to this book I have) lol

Let's hope Koega-kun uses that boundless energy into something creative, like acting or stand-up work
Yeah Seiga could be his manager! haha, so cute.

Cute indeed! Yes, Koega is the attention whore...a master at the mere age of 8 years old! This kid is destined for show biz!

Seiga, he is the artist, the thinker, and the ever present guardian of Koega....Manager maybe?

It's a turn on that you know some Japanese darlin'!
