 Shot in Nathan Phillips Square here in Toronto. The reflecting pool has not yet been filled with water for the spring-summer season, but most of its bottom was still wet this afternoon after some rain this morning. I don't know why the little boy suddenly decided to sit down on one of the few dry spots in the pool, but I couldn't resist taking this picture of him among the reflections. I recently bought a Nikon D60 to serve as a backup to my current D80 and the D90, when it comes out. I was using the D60 today, and I was very happy with the results it was giving me. Note: that the camera shown below is the D80. That is incorrect, but I couldn't figure out how to select the D60, which wasn't shown as a choice even after I'd added it to my profile.

This is unique, plus a great slice of time...perfectly executed and very artistic, with crisp detail and a wonderful composition. I love the bright yellow and contrasting blues. This is just about perfect.

nicely captured, good choice to have the yellow shirt colour as it makes it really pop out, bright clean lines, nicely sharpend

This is pretty interesting. A lot for the eye to explore, but not too busy. The yellow shirt makes it. The boy would be lost in the frame if he was not wearing that bold color.
