Running Boy

Ambling along the always interesting streets ok Hong Kong central district, camera at hip level in my hand I spied a bit of quick street action. Point with my wrist and shoot from the hip. Not sure what he was running from but seemed concerned with a possible persuit.

I like the angle and the comp, and with the boy looking behind him, it all conveys a sense of tension.

Nice!

Seriously, Tom? This looks like you set up the scene, paid the actor, tweaked the lighting to get that edgy extemporaneous look, and then nailed the shot. enlightened Nicely captured!

Very accomplished shot - great perspective, tones and subject interest ( it does indeed have you wondering what he is running from - nice ambiguity )
