Love the springy green and water droplet effect. Interesting and quite abstract. I like it.

Good lighting. The pink ribbon is a nice touch. I'd give the dancer more negatie space and not have it dead center like a bulls eye.

A bit contrived, but funny nonetheless. I think the checked tablecloth detracts from this - your eye gets caught up in it a bit. Great imagination. Hope you enjoyed your lunch!

He looks genuinely pleased. I think this is really cute. Good DOF. I'd give more negative space around him - the crop seems a tad tight.

I like the lighting of this. The movement of the hammer coming down is well achieved. Although I see that the fire is an integral part, I find it distracting as it is the bright part of the shot and I think we should be focusing on the guy. Maybe shoot from a different angle with the fire out of focus and more behind him, so we still know it's there, but zoom in on him more. Just a suggestion. Good luck.

I liked this the minute I saw it. Good ol' George with his cherry tree axe. The silhouette is nicely placed. Maybe even more space to the left and a tighter crop to the right would have worked for me. Nice sunset colors. 7

Darling little girl. Nice close up. I wish it were a touch more sharp. I'd love to see some glint in her eye as well. The DOF is good and the blue denim jacket adds a nice contrast to the golden tones in her hair. 7

Nice close up. Great eyes. I'm trying to figure out what the elyptical reflection is. The dry lips are a tad distracting. Some chap stick perhaps? Lovely child. Beautiful lighting and skin tones.

The proudest uncle in the world!

Nice natural pose. I wish the baby was looking at the camera too, but the title is all about the uncle and he's captured quite well. The crop seems just a bit tight. Good DOF.
