Comment by Imagineer:
This would probably have been better cropped to the edge of the 'W' extremeties. Nice reflections but contrast could have been better.

This is a really nice composition and shot. I especially like the echoing right angles in the reflections, and the way it makes this into a multi-layered photo, as it were.

meets the challenge but doesn't create much 'interest' for me as a viewer...

Comment by amsmyth:
the light is problematic to me and losing the subject's face detracts from the overall effect

I agree with excellent composition but odd color. But then I'm usually lousy at fixing color myself. Definitely captured the "flavor" of the movie.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Hi OneSweetSin, I'd guessed this was yours during voting... I thought I'd seen this little boy in your photos before :-)

First off, it definitely fits the challenge. Very cute. I loved home alone! It's amazing to me that McCaulley Culkin is already grown and married, we're similar ages! Anyway, good job choosing your subject for the photo.

The lighting here leaves a lot to be desired.. it is very flat and straightforward, and doesn't really do a lot for the photo. He looks like he has a bluish tint to him, I know that part of it is from the koolaid (?) but I'm sure he didn't get it on his forehead. Hehehe...

I like your composition... filling the frame was nicely done here and it helped with no distractions surrounding the kid.

This looks quite a bit like a snapshot, but it's not a big deal... I would try and work on getting better lighting for sure. Play around with lighting... doing this outdoors without a flash might have been a good thing.

Good luck in the future!
