		| | This is a great shot!  I have three boys and none of them will cooperate for portraits.  Any shot I get has to be a candid, which makes it tough.  This appears to be a candid and you did a great job of capturing his happiness and enthusiasm!  I also like the way you cropped it.  Was that intentional?  I spent another minute or two trying to come up with a way to improve the shot...and I can't find anything to do better!  Well done and good luck in the challenge!

		| | Very natural expression.  Contrast and focus are great.  I love the composition, how the boy is on the right part of the frame.  My favorite this week.  Good luck! |

		| | This is wonderful capture. Really good cropping and facial expression. I would like to have a little more contrast, because I feel that the face is a little too grey. |

		| | This is an absolutely beautiful portrait.  One of my favorites for the challenge!  I love that smile, you caught him just at the right second.  Great use of background... doesn't detract from the boy, and is interesting, almost gives it more of a 3d look.  I also love your cropping which is very pleasing to the eye.  Beautiful use of black and white!  Solid 10!  Great job! |

		| | A beautiful expression on this face.........   i love the shock of white/blonde hair and the overall contrast and tone is good,  which makes this a special pic........ |

		| | You are luck to have such a good model.   I am not sure why but his face looks grainier than it should based upon the background.   It mat be a little overprocessed, it shows in his teeth also.   I do fell that a lot of us get too close to the monitor and don't get back to look, so we just pick them apart from about three inches.   I backed away and have the same thoughts, good picture with its faults. |

		| | Wonderful shot, but I would have preferred less border.  (bet you're hearing a lot of that  huh?)  I take one point away.  (9) |
