Greetings from the Critique Club

With a score of 6.38 and favorable comments during the Challenge, I expect you got what you wanted from this image. It is a good one.

It tells a story which can be read many ways. This is a talent which not everyone has. Therefore, technical thoughts fly out the window. For example: Did you want the shallow depth of field to show the progression of the child from the faintest suggestion at left, to the extra sharp of the child on the right? If you did, it works. The circle composition works it's magic here as well. The fact that a child's head touches the top of the frame? Usually a technical flaw. Here, it seems to work.

I can only wish you continued success in your experience here at DPChallenge.

Awesome. The brown tones really give their smiles wonderful contrast. I like that their arms and faces are all twisted together. Nice lighting to highlight the details of each one. What a wonderful title too. Thanks for my smile of the day.

Ah Manny, what can I say about this? It's wonderful, the sepia is great, you're amazing as usual. :) Great capture of their emotions--it's such a playful, happy shot!

I love it! Thanks for the comment on my self portrait earlier. Means a lot to me to have one of DPCs most talented photographers comment on my work. :)

The brightly colored outfit of your subject would look better against a darker background IMO
