Cute, but a little dark. Now, this is going to seem odd/impossible, but the man facing away, his left sleeve is so very over exposed. (I have no idea how to make the shirt less bright, while making the subject's faces brighter, but that's what I talking about.) The reflection in the picture's glass is probably not a good thing, but it is off to the edge of the photo. 8 Swash

Good shot. The subtlety is just right, turning what I initially thought was just another boring 'people sitting around' shot into a 'somebody bored of people just sitting around' shot.

On a technical note, the adults are looking at the other kid, but he is obscured. Perhaps a step to the right tp bring him in, or wait for attentions to move back to one of the adults.

Ha -- this is an amusing shot! I hope there isn't any food under there!

I wouldn't have minded more of a close-up, but I kind of like this too, since it gives more of a feel for the situation, and the "moment". Composition and lighting are fine given the challenge of where you were taking the shot! lhall-8

The interesting subject of this pic (the snoozing kid) loses the battle for my eye with the big guy on the right... Composition can't be perfect for candid so it won't influence my vote. 6 sjgleah
