Critquing is so subjective and depends on the viewers tastes. Personnally, I did not care much for the content of the photo but the photo itself had several good qualities. Your Point of View (shooting up) makes for a much more interesting photo than if you shot it straight on. I wish more photographers would try and use this Element of Design in their work. You also chose doing a close up, allowing for a lot of detail to be seen, very good. Cropping, if any, is very good. The boy's head is what we first look at and then the leading lines of his right arm brings us down to the image of the second person. The feather in his hat leads our eyes over to the boys left arm and once again we are back up to his face. This trianglular effect keeps the viewers eye continually moving around the picture. If you are aware that this is important you try and compose all your pictures in this fashion so you can keep the viewers attention as long as possible. The lighting could have been better, I would suggest using fill flash even when your outdoors. You will notice the contrast on the boy's face is very harsh. Fill flash would have balanced that out making for a much better image. Keep up the good work,JG

Beautiful. Reminds me of Hemingway. Don't like your choice of titles though--maybe without the cabin it would have been a more appropriate choice...

I don't like this in black and white. I think there is too much color to be lost. The only justifiable reason IMO to put this in black and white is a problem with one of the colors (like the sky being washed out). There is more to lose than gain by making this B&W. - Inspzil

Great DOF. Focus and clarity are very nice. The lighting is a bit harsh on the right of the photo, on her shirt. I have a 2 year old, so this made me smile. He HATES getting anything on his hands, face, or clothes, so I don't have any of these kinds of pics. She is a cutie. Good luck in the challenge.

this is very sweet but the lighting/shadows take away from her adorable face.
