Today is my birthday so was just taking it easy and not really thinking too hard about my photo. I was outside watching my son, whilst he rode his new scooter around and then suddenly saw the photo opportunity. I only had my iPhone with me, s not a bad shot for a phone. I just love the colors, the splash, the slight blur of motion, the reflection and his concentration.
He is just in the moment, loving it, being stimulated by a “puddle of water”. We were all like that once and we should go back there from time time and not take ourselves and life so seriously. Enjoy your day.

This is fantastic! I love the joy we can see in kids at play – fortunately its contagious. You can tell you’ve caught it by the smile on your face. Thanks for sharing this and I look forward to looking around some more.
Thanks Julz. Hope you stay around for awhile and enjoy the photos.
Great shot, Kenneth and Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday! A wonderful photo like this makes a great birthday present, no doubt!
Love the catch.. Feels like doing this myself .. I mean splashing in the puddle of water .. Happy birthday to you ..
Happy Birthday one day late. Your photo brought to mind the wonderful delight in water play in the spring … how deep is my puddle? How much of a splash will I make? Maybe I’ll just go get a stick and drain those puddles in the drive …
I love the splashing of the water in this picture! It’s such a nice effect
I love the colours, movement & life in the photo – it conveys that simplicity & joy you have when you’re a kid. Hope you celebrated your birthday with some fun as well.
