The kid's face is a little soft (chocolate as a bribe perhaps?), and I personally would have cropped out the ear completely, but other than that the placement is good. Similiarly the leaves/flowers are a little dark and the buds seem to be closing so I assume it was fairly late at night. There is either a tree or a plant limb of some kind very near his forehead and it almost looks part of his features. The bottom right has a blank area of black that stops the flow/pattern of the leaves. It's a good shot, but I think a different time of day would have helped it greatly.

I saw it a little underexposed. But a great idea.

Great expression, inhaling smell, peaceful. however the light is too blue and flat. The picture to dark and flat. perhaps taking this at a time with more sunlight.

Looks washed out, Its interesting that he's out of focus and the flowers are in focus - was this planned?

A little dark & flat lighting.

Nice idea, focus and lighting poor.

DOF and unnatural skin tone. You needed to get some light in here - at this close range flash wouldn't have done it - perhaps consider getting a reflector.

A bit dark, nice idea though

May need a bit more light and better focus. Surprisingly one of only two flower pictures with someone sniffing. I like the composition.

Good concept but the picture is unsharp.

I like the smelling expression on the kid, really actively showing him taking in the scent fits the theme well. A little more post-processing in a photo software program might have helped though...its a little dark.
