Very cute. Deserved it's top 20. The different faces posed, and the closeness brings the sense of family to the fore. The youngest's cgeejy smile is a highlight for mine.

Mandy loved this shot. I don't know why I didn't recognize you from your profile image. You have a great looking family.

The dead space in the foreground, the lack of headroom and the fact that the woman is bending over make it feel like the frame is falling. I think that at least cropping out some of the foreground would have improved the image.

I like your crop choice, pose and simplicity here.
However, the whole thing seems to be a bit Neat Image abused.

Fantastic! What a great bunch of fun-loving kids! ...'cept for the tongue wagger! ;-)
I really like everything about this except the crop or framing is too close at the top. Very well done, though and perfect for the challenge. Terrific looking family.

Very nice subjects :) Nice pose, nice atmosphere a little too soft and the white object in the left upper side is a little distracting. Good job though.

Thats what I call a family. Just wonder about the monochrome.. how would the color pic compare?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/11/2005 12:59:12 PM
Hmmm... I think I recognize somebody in this shot. ;-)

Nice use of BW - great expressions. DOF is really good, but seems a little soft around some faces. (And I can't see the wrinkles in your neck in this shot! - j/k)

Great job - it certainly meets the challenge topic well too. Good luck! 8

What fun! I might have liked this better in color.

Cute family shot. Bit blurry on the oldest child, faster shutter speed would have stopped the action faster, overexposed whites as well. Also... minor point... as you are in the picture, I hope this was shot using timer, otherwise its someone else's image.

What a hoot! Quite a brood there, some real characters. Is the subject a little high in the frame? Excellent humor.

the motion in the two kids is in contrast to the sharpness of the others, but works well. I might not have centered the group - but offset them to the right with mroe of the field showing to the left

A little less foreground would have made this a better picture. Great sense of togetherness though.

SO CUTE!!!!! I love the tongue sticking out. Great capture all the way around. Nice use of lighting and contrast. I wish it were a bit better focused but that's hard with 3 wiggly kids. LOL
