The Recruiting Process

Comment by Dr.Confuser:
I like the photo. Sky is nicely colored and does a nice job setting off the shilouette of the tree. However, the presence of the child in the photo hurts, not because of the child per se, but by leaving room for him, the photo is unbalanced and seems to be falling over. If you had cropped it closer in the left, I don't think it would feel that way.

UNDER-rated. I'd given it a 7, love the soft focus and the tones. And the lighting, of course!

it's cute but it looks like her lashes and eyebrows have been oversharpened which is a shame

I love your idea but feel that the baby's ear is in focus by its face is not.

Oh my!!!!! What a terrific candid type portrait. Her eyes and face - the focus is perfect. Love those wisps of our, slightly out of focus. Technically, pretty close to perfect for me. 9
