The Lonely Tricycle Gang is Napping Nearby

Cool image, both the trikes and the mural, although I'm not sure which one I'm supposed to focus on. I think you'd be better off isolating each in their own image.

Playing Dress-Up

Not a bad portrait but it doesn't evoke thoughts of childhood for me. There isn't anything in the image that makes me think childhood except the title, and I would say the image should be able to stand without an explanation. I'm going to mark you lower based on relevance to the challenge.

Beautiful lighting and background. Well executed. Nice color. The subjects aren't overly inspiring.

The Food of Childhood.

Definitely shouts childhood! Lighting is nice and even. Objects lead my eye around the frame and back to the sandwich. Nicely done although not overly exciting or eye catching.

Childhood Memories: The Intimidating Climb of the Slide
by breadfan35

I love the black and white and the angle. I didn't read you title before I looked at the image. What went through my head is, "I can remember being small and looking up some daunting climb or challenge to get to some new phsyical accomplishment... climbing the slide, crossing the monkey bars, crossing the creek, etc." I love the graduated background going from light at the bottom to a black sky... emphasizing the scary top. Very clean, very sharp, great tones... well done!

Ooh... I love the lighting and dreamy quality. Great take on a rather ordinary playground.

Cellar Studies

Comment:
Eye catching texture and composition. Relating it to childhood seems a bit creepy... makes me think of a child being locked in the cellar. (That's good that it evokes creepiness... a different take than just the normal warm and fuzzy. Disturbing but good.)

A Child's Imagination

Interesting stuffed animal but the lighting is flat, background is a bit distracting and I don't get any sense of depth.

The joy of soap bubbles

Interesting shot but it doesn't scream childhood at me... I think science, pattern, color. Great lighting!
