What a PRECIOUS photo!!!!!! I didn't get a chance to finish voting on all the pictures, so I missed this one. I would have definitely given this one a 10+ in a heartbeat!!! Congratulations on such an amazing finish!!!
This is simply stunning! The exposure is perfect and the way that you have composed this really creates a very strong image. Congratulations - the top 10 is well deserved!
Wow! A beautiful and touching image. The eyes are amazing, very feline like. The image overall is very well composed, the colours feel well balanced and all blend extremely well. I feel not only is it the photogenic subject that makes this picture but also the little subtle factors. The touches of ice-cream on the nose and around the lips are more realistic to the other entries where the models face is plastered with ice-cream. My very fave for this challenge, all the best :)
I love his eyes and the contrast of his skin tone with the ice cream (which is, unfortunately, a little blown on highlights). I would have either wiped the smudges off his nose or gone even more with them, the intent is not clear with this amount. I'm giving you an 7. (PS, is that a hot pixel in the upper right? I'm not holding it against you though...)
I love the beautiful character of the photo. You have captured a great moment in this picture. Reminds me of hot, summer days as I spent as a child... Excellent!
Wow - I am just drawn to those eyes, they're amazing. I can't decide whether I like the reflection of the photographer in there or not. Only thing is the dairy theme is very secondary - I eventually notice the ice cream after looking at the eyes for so long!
This picture is great, and I love how well it conveys the joy of licking an ice cream cone on a hot summer day. An excellent photograph all around! Well done!
She seems to be adoring whoever it is who bought her the ice cream, and the viewpoint makes it seem as though I bought it for her. It makes me happy to think I did something nice for a kid. As for technical aspects of the photo, everything has been done very well. Composition, contrast, detail, focus, interest. It's all there.
Nice angle and sharpness, but could use more depth, and the reflection of the photographer in both eyes is distracting. It feels like the icecream is not central to the photo, but I like the premise.
spank you if this doesn't ribbon. i saw this on csi the other day...they now have software that can isolate the reflection in the eyes and super magnify that to get a second photograph going. hrm...
Darling expression. This is my favorite. His deep skin tones are the perfect contrast to the ice cream and his beautiful eyes!! This is nicely done. Maybe tone down the blown out sense on the white of his collar and shirt, but otherwise - great. You could crop out all but a hint of the cone and the ice cream message would still convey. Cute kid!!!
