Cute. But, she seems a bit cramped inside this very tightly cropped shot. If there was a possibility of a reshoot, I'd suggest getting down on the floor, closer to her level, and looking more upwards into her face, instead of down at the top of her head, and leaving more blank space above her head. If you had to, you could lookse the boots, as well, as they detract from the face. Also, I find this a bit too contrast-y, and there are some blown highlights on her face, near the nose. 5

Great expression, and the perfect title to highlight it. Nice job. I might have gone for just a touch more contrast to get to true blacks and whites, but overall a 7 from me.

How cute. Great focus and use of Dof to highlight the boy. I just wish there was slightly more of a catchlight in the lads eyes. That would really make this shot pop. 7 as it is.

Nice shot. Good cmoposition, great use of Dof to draw the eye to the main subject in an otherwise busy shot. 7

great shot. Top 10, I think. great B & W conversion, great Dof, great focus, great composition to just get the head. The only detraction, IMO, is the OOF foreground element (I can't even tell what it is -looks like it might be the top of steering wheel???). An 8 from me.

Nice idea, but I find the lighting to be very harsh, and from a bad angle. Having the suject turn slightly and step more into the light, and fixing your exposure would avoid the blow outs on the face and arms.

Not sure how this is an event, but I'll assume it is. Nice colour tones. The guy in the left in the white shirt drawa my eye away from the subjects. Perhaps waiting a few seconds for him to leave the frame would have really improved this shot. Also, a bit dark on the smaller boys face. Getting them to turn just slightly so the light hit their eyes better would have also help. 5 from me.

Oh, such a nice idea, but so small, and even being so small, there are extra people in the shot that should be cropped out, on both the left and right.

Good lighting, but I think the focus is just a bit soft. Also the large white space at the bottom distracts my eye from the actual mask. I would suggest cropping up a bit to remove some of that. 6

Interesting composition selection. IMO, it seems too tight, and I wish I could see more of the costumes, which I would think should be amazing, given the headware.
