the picture is beautiful, but i feel like it could have been processed better. i would have preferred a b&w, i think. the contrast is way too high for me, causing a lot of burning. maybe that's what you were looking for, though?

Quite the attention grabber. This tugs at the heart-strings and is well set. A little too bright, but perhaps that was intentional. Good job.

Hello Abhishek,

This is a very nice image. I really like the colors and the way you have captured the grandiosity of this structure. I, too, would like to have seen more of the reflection - maybe by having moved a bit left and closer to the water to minimize the edge of the pool. Doing so would have given the picture more up/down symmetry, adding interest and impact. Great photograph, in its own right, though. Keep up the good work! :)

One of the best examples of the theme. Highlights seem a bit overblown

Image seems a bit overexposed. Using a neutral density filter at the time of the shot would have equalized the highlights better. Subject is wonderful, and I love the concept.

The overall picture is good. Very dramatic. I am not crazy about the blown highlight here and there.

I figured to see a photo like this in the challenge,, nice job. The high lites as a little washed out but I like it all the same.

I like this, but the child seems to be the focus, and for this challenge I think the garbage should be the subject or at least as prominent as the child.

I love this. Parts of it seem overexposed, but I don't care.
