I like much: The simplicity of the shot. - The desaturated backgournd.
I like less: the way you fited it to the challenge theme.
Score: 9

The flower bring all the attention even if it's not (I suppose!) the main subject of this photography. The theme of the challenge being where you live i think having the baby in the lower left or right of the picture with lot of depth of field and without the disturbing flower would have been the right choice to my taste. The perfection would have been leaving the color in the entire picture.

I don't get a great sense of 'where you live' from here. The spot color is a tad dated, too. Cute kid, though!

I thought it would be impossible not to meet the challenge, but you are getting close. Nevertheless, a creative choice to make the flower sharp and colorful and the child B&W and out of focus. But I don't like image with partial desaturation. Sorry not appealing to me.

Great idea. I'd like to see the top of the baby's head - and I would not center the subject.

Once again originality takes a back seat on this site. The masses are so used to see pretty babies that are perfectly lit with no noise and heavane forbid any shadows. Your photo is highly original and sculptural in nature. It is a photo about form and yes, it has tons of ambience and who cares if it is eerie. Good art provokes us and makes us think. I am stunned to see that this work did not place higher. I would have had it slated in the top 3 at least. Congratulations once again on an excellent and highly original photo.
