Jaume:

Thank you for your comments.  I found them helpful.

To answer your question, I did not have much choic on my angle of view.  This
was as a crowded rodeo, where I was seated in the grandstands.  The Kids were
in a different section on the arena, and I wasn't able to climb down and get
closer to them or get a better angle.  The girl (the one on the right), kept
figiting, and every time she truned around, she had the hands to her mouth.
This was one of the few moments when all were in close proximity and you could
see what they were looking at.  I really wish the background action was more
interesting, but nonw of the shorts I got were able to combine a good view of
the kids with interesting action in the same frame.
