Norwegian newspaper VG commissioned us to do a piece about Gibraltar last year. Spencer went along with our brand new Nikon D300 and re-visited old favorite hang outs of his. Needless to say, he was trigger happy, dying to test out new functionality. So he came back with triple the amount of images needed for the article, and this is one of them.
It was taken in Rosia Bay on the Western side of the Rock of Gibraltar. The beach is man made nestled below an old military battery. The boys had managed to convince their mums to take them to the beach although it was not yet summer holidays, and therefore the beach was almost empty. I love the way the boys spontaneously struck these body building poses as if it was the most natural thing in the world. And I love their shadows.
