Is this worn-out gal his mom? Even if so, let's call the moral police and stop underage drinking. Strange subjects sometime can take away from the unposed qualities of the shot and I fear such is the case here.

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

This is a cute snapshot, but not what I look for particularly in a candid. Children's emotions and actions are virtually uncontained. They are easy and prime targets for candids. I like to see something a bit more out of the ordinary. As for technicals, I believe there is good focus here, but the lighting looks blue, as if it were set for incondescent lighting indoors. It badly needed some tonal adjustments. I would have converted it to b/w and given some attention to HMS. It's a 3 for me.

I'm not sure what it is, but the colors look a little off. The colors don't seem warm enough. The wine is really dark too, it would have been nice if you had some color in the wine.

Colour temperature problems serve only to make this child look ill, to me. The flash exposure is unfortunate for the shaping and definition too.

Not only does this lack in technical and artistic appeal, I disagree with it on a moral level. This is a terrible idea, giving wine to a toddler.

Natural lighting would have made this one better

I like the idea of this. I only wish the flower wasn't centered on the image.. and perhaps the people in the background weren't THAT blurry.
Well done, though. :)
