Originally posted by K-9 The one thing about this shot is that you had to tell us what they were watching. As far as a picture telling a story, the shot fails because we have no idea why the kids are acting this way. Taking a side shot and capturing both the magician and the kids' expression would have worked much better.
I have to disagree. The kid's reaction is the story, not what they are watching. It really doesn't matter if the adult is doing magic, making balloon animals, or someone showing off a snake at a zoo presentation, the laughter is the subject.
