I would like to thank the Mother and the her children for doing this photo shoot.
We had not met prior and it was very nice to be accepted for the shoot.
Thank You.

Although most of the top photos were shot with dark backgrounds, it is more difficult to show fill flash with a light background, this was not accepted by DPC voters it would appear, with not one comment giving a reason for the result.

Sorry there weren't any challenge comments for you, Brian. Generally, that's an indication that although you met the challenge parameters, there wasn't anything to either like or dislike with the entry. In this case, you've managed to ably demonstrate a fill technique, but there aren't any overly engaging elements to the image. The colours seem just a bit flat (you might try to play with a "curves" layer to increase the contrast), and the candid nature of the image leaves you with little room to play with composition. I scored this one a 5.

Considering you're approaching your 500th challenge entry, and your profile is filled with 6.5+ entries, I'm sure you've heard all this before.
