Good picture, though I'm not one for the blatent statement of time. Personally, I think this would have been a great idea if you had something else in it to convey the sense of time gone by

Comment by Imagineer:
Looks a little derelict to me but not desolate. Image is a bit soft or blurred, although it's a nice composition.

Soft focus works well to add mood here. Sillhouette certainly gains attn because of the neg. space.

Very nice! The pose is unusual for a child of that age. Good eye to get it.

Hi Anna - you seem to be my oersonal critique club victim :-)

Didn't vote on this challenge - too tied up in having a shot with a chance to see it all clearly - but I did look through all the entries quite closely; and liked this, a lot.

I can see why it didn't appeal to most voters though: no tricksy composition, no unusual element, nothing very 'arty' about it. But I liked the idea of fake perfection it puts across - even that plastic sheen from the flash comes across well there - like a comment that all our futures are moving inexorably towards this perfection of look as dictated by the magazines and pointless TV shows. Unfortunately the title kind of puts this out of consideration as what you were trying to achieve - but hey, I still see it.
