Comment by Garry:
Really wonderful snapshot of life here with the kids running around, playing and having fun! Somewhat incongruous though with the book, which was about brutality and savagery of primitive living.

Gorgeous light and texture. Well composed between shaded areas and lit areas, with the placement of your two subjects. Much too joyful for the book, but I give you a 7 for a great shot.

Little young for Lord of the Flies, but very nice shot. I like the lighting and the textures. I wonder what it would have looked like if you had let it be even a bit more blown in the highlights. -7-

A beautiful scene, great use of light and perspective. These guys seem a little too innocent maybe, but that's the catch isn't it. Nicely done. 6.

oppressive geometry, insistent light

I'm hanging this in my fantasy art gallery.

This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. The zigzag composition.
2. The dramatic tones.
3. The fearlessness of your shadows - I'm never brave enough to leave such pools of black in my images.
4. The sense of brightness, despite the darkish rendition.
4. The spacing of your subjects within the Z axis and the ambiguity of their relationship.

Overall, a great brooding shot.

Beautiful movement. Love the processing (or lack of it)
