Bad Points: image format is too long for my taste -not sure about the suprise - he doesn't look suprised
Good Points: as a reportage shot, this is tops. A great effort. But for the suprise...mm?
Overall Score: 4

The look in the boy's eyes is quite something. Sadly, it's more a look of longing than surprise. Touching photo, but wrong challenge.

I've heard that there have been problems with bad monkeys in South East Asia. Is that because they don't spank them enough?

Interesting the Hawaiian t-shirt on a street boy in India. He looks more tired than surprised. The monkey seems to be controlling him and not the other way around. An interesting photo that captures the moment.

This looks like an amazing temple. I wish the palm fronts (?) weren't so dominant in the foreground to allow more of the temple's detail to show.

I love the colors in this shot, the vibrancy and the way it pops out at you. The plant in the front is a bit of a distration though, blocking the front of the temple. An 8
