Interesting on first glance but there is not enough in focus , particularly the left, to pull me in. I keep going to the 'hole' but there is nothing there for me to look at.5

This is an interesting thing photographed well. However, there is nothing special about it, nothing that makes me want to explore the image. 6

Great Expectations

Very cute baby in a great pose. Not fond of the wrinkles readily apparent in the background, nor of the way the tub slides out of frame. But your focus and toning are spot on for the subject, and those are difficult enough to achieve in and of themselves. 6

A shadowing history
by Mephisto

Comment:
There's a story here...I think the black and white works. I go back and forth about the shadow on his face - typical photography 'rule' would have it not there, but I think it adds to the story the photographer is trying to convey, title aside. I think though, that this could use a little distance - moving a little further away would keep me from feeling so pressed against the scene, unable to tak it all in at once. 6

No Swimming Today

Not fond of the processing, but not a fan of this type of processing. Love the story it tells. I'm only bothered by the top right where the fence isn't. My only thought is to change the point of view slightly. 6

Endearing image in perfect focus. Composed well with excellent toning. 7

The Monicle

Comment:
Excellent treatment for subject - works perfectly together. If the toning were a little more antique, I could actually imagine this being taken in the 1800s. 9

No clue why, but I love this image. 9 BTW - excellently toned and DOF perfect for subject.

Underrated. I think this is beautifully done.

Life is where you are

Completely underrated. This is one of those perfect juxtaposition moments when everything lines up and you couldn't ask for a better scene in front of you to unfold. Glad you were there so I could see it to. This is what I love about photography.
