Love the sense of movement. I wish we could just see a little bit more face.

Good attempt, but I think we need a bit more light and more detail to really feel it. From what little we can see of his face, it doesn't look like much of a struggle.

Great contrast, high key works well here. She's got an earthiness to her appearance that looks like it belongs on an album cover.

While selective desat is fun to play with, it's also pretty unnecessary and detracts from this photo. I feel like this youthful activity needs all it's color.

Recomposing ever so slightly so as to get the line of her glasses out of her eyes would have made this much stronger. Great colors.

I like the border and great job acheiving the silhouettes.... though your vase looks crooked.

Four Señoritas - Albuquerque NM Tricentennial

Great colors, shadows are a bit harsh though. It appears two of them are wincing and the other two look like they might be about to, I can't help but wonder what the heck they're watching, or if it's just the sun! More shots of these four beauties might have produced a stronger entry.

Cute capture, but looks way oversharpened.

Without being able to even see their eyes, or better have them looking in the direction of the camera, there is nothing to draw the viewers into this shot. We are as closed off from the subjects as you were. If you have no interaction wtih them, neither do we.

The Loves of My Life

The light here looks a bit harsh and unnatural and Mom's bright white shirt takes up more of the frame than it should in my opinion. Perhaps a different arrangement of the subjects- not to mention getting Mom to smile so she doesn't look so incongrouous with her smiling and happy daughter- might make this a more pleasing portrait.
