normally these "shot into a mirror" pics are cliche' and boring, but something about this one really works, perhaps its the smiling faces in the b/g. well done.

It's such a drilling game isn't it? Nice concept and nicely executed.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: This is rather beautifully done. It may look snap-shottish at first glance but get past that and we have something that is well composed, has great coloration and is fun to boot.

Critical stuff: Not much, perhaps a tad more highlight recovery might have been welcomed.

Overall: I think you have captured a moment here... and a 'feel-good' one at that. Giving this a significant bump from my first viewing.

Great take on the standard family portrait. Good job getting everyone in the background to have nice expressions, and I like the slightly washed out colors here.
