Best: Uh-oh, we have an "artist" on our hands...the exposure and mood is spot on
Worst: I wish the boy wasn't so removed at the bottom...he almost feels too disconnected from abstract upper half..

Nice use of shadow and light on the face to provide depth and demension. I also like the level of sharpness detail in the face, eyes and coat. The Fence on the left is a little distracting as it pulls my eye but, overall great composition.

A very real scene tightly connected to an imaginary world. A nice glimpse of a normally private time for children.
I see that the maid don't do windows : )

Great connection of the elements in this image. Good use of the desat as well to make the primary subject have more grip. Good choice of title to tie it all up into a tidy bundle so that you don't miss the point.

this is great I love images like this when you can't tell if its in true colour or b/w. I think its one one those images that would have to be printed to be really appreciated. how an image print's is a make or break thing for me.

I really like the composition and b&w treatment, as well as the smooth skin tones. Unfortunately, even on an overly bright monitor such as my POS Dell laptop screen, it's just a tad too dark. The shadows on the right work with the composition, though could show a bit more detail, but it's the child's right eye that kills it ... not enough depth or detail unfortunately. Otherwise, well done.

Skin is too soft, plasticky.

Nicely done. I really like the high contrasts, but that you've managed to keep the evenness and smooth feeling of the subject's face. Great match.
