Quite a powerful shot and crop - but too dark overall for me.

nicely illuminated and framed but I'm not sure what the story is. He seems to be splattered in milk . . is he standing under a leaky cow ? :)

Powerful shot - well executed. As a picture I really like it, but for the challenge it is meant to be B&W.

The lighting is too harsh for me. Sorry.
You still get a vote though :)

Pretty girl, tremendous mouth, but the picture lacks tonal range and is simply to dark for me.

I'm not completely sure what is going on here, and the hair covering the eye tends to distract me. Well lit though.

interesting framing between the buses, but the white line distracts and someone has stolen her feet :)

Colour in a B&W challenge . . hmmm.
To be honest I can really like this sort of thing, but I think the main picture is a bit too light, and the eyes are over saturated in contrast to the rest. Try desaturating the eyes, and making them a bit lighter. Possibly even putting a little colour back in the roses. It's a nice picture that would have scored higher without the blue.

better focus on the face would be nice.

Interesting illumination - but they all appear to have their eyes shut, some open eyes and catchlights would transform this picture. Cute kids.
