As the people were your subject, and with people you make that connection with the subject best through their faces.

Good job! Hi Tim-

These people were excited to run into the cold water!?

But I think if the shutter is a little bit faster and make it more clearer will be better. Thanks. I like it.

The coldest it has been for me when we went in is the 20's with ice chunks floating in the pool....
