Raindrops (Get Pushed)

I was challenged by Lynda @lynbonn to do a photo that features a leap, so here it is. Lucky me that kids wanted to jump over the puddles in the rain before getting into the house today.
I had fun with editing here, but I think it turned out ok.
Thanks for visiting and comments! I am always looking forward to reading your critique and opinions.
@lynbonn Here is my leaping picture!

I love the action, reflection, shadow and atmosphere going on in this - well done. I don't blame the kids wanting to have some fun.

Love the fact that there's so much air between legs and pavement, plus that you have the puddle ripples in focus, and the creamy tones you chose for the edit :)

The drops...The Shadow ...The car , the lighting and the amazing leap all pull this photo together and tell a great story...

Better than Cartier Bresson.

Dear all! I am ages behind on replying to all the wonderful comments to my pictures, but with this one, I felt I wanted to take time and say special thank you to everyone who stopped, looked and commented, and voted for it on the Weekly Theme thread. I am so honored to have received all the votes and all the positive reaction to this picture! Thank you! This one was a wonderful example how a quick 3-min picture opportunity turned into something interesting and exciting. I am glad you enjoyed the image!
