Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Kodak...

Children are definitely great subjects for photographs... especially in the 'cliche' challenge.

I like this composition... I think the harsh lighting adds a nice element to this photo... a little bit of surrealism maybe :) It also creates a sense of loneliness and content at the same time... The child is alone, but seems very content with whatever he is doing :) It reminds me of my own early saturday mornings as a child when I would get up before my parents and start my day on my own :)

One of the things I like about this photo is that normal compositional rules don't really apply. The strong perspective of the hallway really works well...

I'm sorry I don't have much that I can add to improve this photo... it looks excellent as is :)

Keep up the great work :)

ahhh beuatiful... one of the few shots I see around here that acctually benifits from a soft focus... well done!

Very mystical look.... nice job!!!!

very interesting image!! the overexposure works well here, as does the slight slant to the image. alone but not lonely. excellent!

Nice job. I like the capture of light and DOF. Cub

too dark

The light in this photo is nice. It makes the child look smaller than normal which is a nice effect.

Good idea. The reflection off the wall is maybe a little harsh and the framing could be straighter, but still very nice.

the glare distracts me a little - it needed to be a little softer light to make this really work - great idea

Very nice. Sets a great mood.

This would have been better (imo) if the shot was taken from the same level as the child. The sun is also just a bit too bright on the walls - a softer look (taken a few minutes before or later in the morning) might have given better light.

This is a good image. the child sitting on the ground makes this image nice. I like the reflecting effect with the sunlight

I like the idea, colors are warm and soft focus works well. In my opinion there are to many distracting elements, maybe a slightly diferent camera angle would have been better.

This shot has a great feeling to it. But to me it suffered a bit from the slant to the right. I start leaning in my chair if I look too long. Have you tried a closer crop (maybe just above the fish at the top and taking out the door molding on the right )? Just a thought, but when I covered those areas with a piece of paper, it made for a much better shot to my eye.

That sun is too bright for me personally. Like the rest of the photo.

I really like the lighting in the photo. And the child sitting on the ground while being occupied gives the photo a calming effect. Good job.

Very creative. Kinda' spooky actually - I just watched the Shining the other night on TV! I love how this is just a little off angle - it really adds to the interest.
