OK, this is great on several levels.

1. nice natural expression, not posed but lots of fun and happiness flowing out of this picture.

2. The processing. You have really made this look like it was shot on old film stock, the sort of thing that was coming out of africa from western photographers in the 70s and 80s.. but thats a good thing, you have captured a defintely feel here..

8 - I really like this shot.

Come back after voting and upped this to a 9.. I really like it..

OK, bit confused as this isnt strictly a portrait, but not really a candid as it feels `staged`, so I will err on the side of caution and say this meets the challenge.. I am liking the BW conversion here and the DOF. intersting shot, deserving a 7.. well done.

Pittsburgh Steelers Fans - Football Fanatics

OK, well its a group portrait not a candid, so at least one extra mark for making the effort to meet the challenge. The setting is quite distracting, I am thinking this kind of shot whilst sitting in the stadium would of worked far better. still its a good shot and meets the challenge.

GOod group portrait - it nails the technical aspects and for a promo shot works really well. I am sure the models will be pleased with it. Is this a dance or drama group or something along those lines?

well done. 8

I would class this as an `editorial portrait` so it kinda squeezes into this challenge.. a nice shot, with interesting post processing, but its not really exciting me..
