If someone was using expensive color film and flash during the daytime, wouldn’t they have centered the subject better, not cutting off the wheels of the trike? If it was cut/pasted/photoshopped, maybe it was hard getting the wheels to look as though they were on the pavement, so they cut the bottom of all but one off.

One thing you would NOT do is take an action shot in fading light. If the kid was sitting still, then the photographer could have done a better job of composing the shot.

The lighting looks softer than flash pictures typically are--there is no hard shadow--which makes it look like a flash, if used, was bounced from a reflective surface to soften the look.

Or someone was playing with pixels, cutting and pasting.
