Comment by JEM:
You messed up your crisp photograph with the strange filter/border.

This is wonderful, but I think I'd like it even more without the border- it just doesn't need it- just my opinion. :)

A beautiful capture. I love how you have captured the trunk of the tree with its branches reaching towards the sky. This certainly is a work of art and should be hung in a photo gallery for everyone to see. I really like the boarder you used as well. The boarder gives it a beautiful soft feel to the overall image. Excellent photo and GL.

this is clearly a high quality photo done by someone who knows something about using a camera. technically there isn't much to complain about here, but ultimately do i find this a compelling, original photo? no (although i'd love to know how this was done), maybe because the portrait is greater than the eggs. yes, you use eggs, but they aren't relevant to your photo (the eggs without the boy would make no sense, the boy with out the eggs would do just fine).

i don't see any leading lines . . . where am i being brought into the subject of the photo by a line?

and the strange effect from the borders also detracts materially from the quality of the photo - if the tree is the subject of the photo, why the strange fade on the edges? how does that add to the quality of the photo?

Wow! Very crafty. It would be better if the eggs didn't give the impression that the shot is off centered to the right. 8

I really like this photo, but once again, I think the borders detract. They draw too much of the focus away from the main subject and detract from the leading lines. Just my opinion tho!

Great concept but the border distracts from the picture, I keep wanting to see more of the surrounding area. Also, would have liked that right egg in the frame. Great camera work otherwise!

Lovely portrait. I am guessing that you had a picture of the child and placed the eggs in front with the foliage to make the picture appear too have been taken "Live". Great idea. Very effective
