Sorry but I don´t like it, the lack of focus is just irritating me and I just wanna click a grade to get to the next shot. If you like it though, just ignore me, what the hell do I know anyways. Just wanted to explain why I gave this a 3, would have given less if I thought it didn´t meet the challenge.

Interesting idea, but looks OOF rather than soft-focus or abstract.

This is a very 'soft' shot. Too soft in my opinion - it looks out of focus and has no focal point to draw your audience in.

Nice idea and interesting angle. Something in the image should be sharp, and something should be brighter.

i understand that you probably did not want to wake the child - but this quite out of focus due o lack of lighting.
