Great image, but this frame really distracts me. With a plane frame or no frame this would have been an 8 from me, as is 6

Oh, very nice! Great capture of drops and droplets and softly sloshing liquid below. Though I think the placement of the frame adds to the picture, I'm distracted by the shade of blue used in the frame and would like to have seen it in solid black.

Very nice, but, Innocence? IMO he really looks troubled, I want to go and comfort him.

Comment by e301:
There's another shot like this which seems equally mis-titled. Excellent portrait, great sense of feeling to it, but that feeling, for me, is most certainly not innocence. It could be the moment of the loss of innocence, perhaps, and would be the more powerful for that being the case. It speaks to me of that moment when the realisation dawns that maybe all one's dreams are not achievable ... amybe there just isn't the time, maybe one has to learn to live a life unfulfilled, or of constant struggle against the hand one has been dealt. Titles ... the only words you get to offer us.

Lovely portrait. Border is a bit detracting. Makes you want to give him a big hug.

As the picture was getting downloaded on my monitor, innocence was visible in the eyes, more so in the lips !
