photography - entry for #derangedphotography theme "Tell Me a Story"

It's as if this girl was thinking, yeah I know my mam is a bit weird...

...she's trying to walk upside down...

... I'd better pretend to be playing.

This is my entry for theme Tell Me a Story in the Deranged Photography Contest, #derangedphotography, by @derangedvisions.

When I saw this scene on the beach, my intention was to try to create an animated gif from it, so I took the two photos above. By cropping the originals I was able to quickly align both quite nicely. Surprisingly though I had more trouble with the colors - I always shoot with auto white balance settings, and though both photos were taken under the same conditions, their colors were sufficiently different that it took me a while to get both to match. (The above photos are the final color matched versions, not the original colors). In the animation I decided to freeze the action of all except the woman and girl in the middle, and the man to the left - I thought him seemingly punching the dunes was an interesting touch:

I like your tag, 'derangedphotography'.

Did she spot you taking your snaps? There's always something to capture, you just need to be able to see.

Thanks @slobberchops.
The 'derangedphotography' tag is courtesy the Deranged Photography Contest which I reference in my post :)
The upside-down woman didn't spot me. I walked by her a few moments later and she was still doing her yoga pose. I'm not sure of the little girl; even though she was facing me in the first photo, she wasn't really looking at me I think. As you can tell from the horizon line I was kneeling down so I think I did blend in well with the people all around me.
Yup, when I go out for a photo-walk there's always something that presents itself. It's not something you can plan, you just need to keep your eyes open. Even something mundane can make for an interesting photo!
