I like the curiosity in his gaze.

This screams "curiosity" to me, I love the composition and colors here.

Welcome to the cave of wonders! I love his body position and the sense of surreal of the water world beyond.

You've captured such a great sense of discovery and mystery. My one tiny quibble is the posterization of the "sea" floor.

Nice scene, but you need to use less compression when you save your file. I can see compression artifacts around the edges. With only an 85k file size, you had lots of overhead remaining till you hit the challenge limit of 200k.

I love the type of technique where we use a subject to direct our gaze to the actual subject ... well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Simple composition for a simple shot. Mildly interesting.
 03/15/2009 12:22:36 PM

Very nice image. It's good to see a few "great" images. This is a perfect reflection of your abilities as a photographer.

Nice framing of this underwater view with the boy looking at it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2009 10:09:53 AM
That's neat, like a portal into another world (which I suppose it is).
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Interesting visit to the aquarium shot.

Viewers Reaction: Thought Provoking; it is so important to not lose sight of the world from a child's viewpoint...so many gems we take for granted. Thanks.

Classic. Gives a meaning.

 03/14/2009 11:51:35 AM
what a fun shot...more candid...like the texture on the concrete window frame
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 11:23:16 AM

cool portal to a different world
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 05:32:26 PM
Fun! I really like this... I wish the extra space were on the left side of the image instead of the right, though... so the boy could be looking 'into' the image instead of 'out of' the image.

Good color. Fun.

I love this! 9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 12:45:38 PM
I would be tempted to crop out the darkness on the right hand side to make the crop closer to square.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:35:30 AM
Good perspective. The little fella peering in certainly adds to the shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 07:47:23 AM

Brilliant shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 11:05:29 PM
Very sweet shot. I love the enthusiasm in the child's body language, and the blue-green tones of the water beyond the circle window. The sun beams really create a sense of depth.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 05:46:28 PM
fun capture
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 01:06:18 PM
Good idea but nothing stands out. Perhaps a fish next to the child would help.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 12:41:57 PM
I wonder what goes through a childs mind. hahah. Nice detail and capture!

A fairly cliched shot but it always has appeal, nice exposure
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 05:20:43 AM
wish there was a larger fish at the window
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 12:18:35 AM
Eerie glow. Feels as though the little fella is looking into another world.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I love shots like these. Makes for great memories.

 03/11/2009 07:43:43 PM
Interesting, the darkness around the window really brings focus to the subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 07:28:09 PM
This is a classic that will probably become a family treasure.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 07:24:53 PM
the kid's lean gives it a sense of wonder.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:00:44 PM
great idea to use the window as a frame, and you can just see the wonder in the little guy by his pose, well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 10:25:09 AM
Nice play of light, the child in me wishes to stand next to him.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
