Salt Spring Photos

Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron

Group Selfie

December 2, 2013

Recess at Saltspring Elementary School

This photo sort of snowballed.
First there was one student playing hopscotch. And she was putting a lot into it; good photo opportunity I thought.

And this is the result after less than one minute.
No prompting was offered, no invitation to join was offered. They just took over.
Salt Spring Elementary: Where the Wild Things Are.
Beautiful.

    Wonderful example of the art of photo bombing. Love the unselfconscious energy. Was the original girl the one in the white sweater – the only one not hamming it up?

      The original girl can be (just barely) seen behind the boy in the black shirt, just at the edge of the frame. She’s now hard at work chalking something, perhaps more hopscotch, behind this group.
