When I first saw this photo it made me think. I though about what was happening and how it may have happened. I like how the photographer (Shazeen Samad) captured the precise moment. If this photo had been taken a moment too soon or a moment later the boy would have been in a different position. This would have made the photo less asymmetrical. I also like how this photo is balanced. Having one person on each side makes the picture asymmetrical which gives the photo balance. The photo is also in black and white, and is very simple. The background and colours are muted and plain which creates simplicity. However the way the picture was taken there is a lot of emphasis on the boy and the water. Due to the calm horizon in the background the picture suggests calmness, stability and tranquility. Overall this picture inspires me. It makes me think out of the box and I find it extremely interesting.
