Location
When typhoon Bhopa arrived to the tiny island of Malapascua, (Philippines), luckily it wasn't as furious as the previous days when it hit other islands. It came here as a tropical storm and local kids had a blast playing under the rain.Time
It was mid afternoon.Lighting
I just wanted to capture this authentic natural moment of these kids as their best. I stood under a roof and waited for them to jump all at once.Equipment
I used my Canon 550D with an 18-135 mm lens.Inspiration
Great sample of pure happiness under the rain magnified by a group of local kids. No need for video games or expensive toys to have some real fun.Editing
Little retouching of contrast, brightness and saturation.In my camera bag
My Canon 550D, tripod, 18-135 mm f3.5-5.6 lens and just got a new one, 50mm f1.8Feedback
Whenever kids are around, just wait because magic moments like this will arise at any moment.
