Without the title, this is a stretch. Not enough contrast in the items around the sink. 3 Jak

Comment by ttreit:
ok composition but title could be a lot better. A title like "bedtime" might be better.

The angle at which it was taken feels a little forced.

A child's eye view (from a lower angle) might have been more effective here.

This is a classic. It has everything the challenge demands ΓΆ€“ but it also has that little something that sets it apart. It's one of those pictures that tells a story and makes you smile ΓΆ€“ even Teddy gets discarded when play time is being wasted :) I really love the composition and lighting and I could find faults perhaps, but I'd rather just enjoy the shot as you intended.

I can't believe I used to we the tooth brush and say I had brushed my teeth. Or maybe I can with all the work that I have had on my teeth...

Original picture, not toys but a refreshing picture. Like the detail of the teddybear on the floor!

The idea grabs me more than the photo - I have memories of my sister and I going through a phase of only pretending to brush our teeth - we'd wet the toothbrushes and smear paste in our mouths... lord knows why we didn't just brush them - it would have been less bother! Luckily my teeth survived that little phase and are still in good state!
On a visual level this photo isn't grabbing me. Firstly I think the fact that the top of the marble unit and the tap need to be included. Secondly I am wondering if this would be more interesting taken from down low, the child's perspective. I like the teddy disgarded on the floor.

This picture would probably have been more effective if taken from a lower, kid-height perspective.
