| One of my top picks. Your timing on this was perfect and you had a good eye to see this opportunity. Quite surprised at where you ended up score wise. |

Thank you everybody!
When I chose this photo, I was almost sure that it wasn't a good choice for a contest. Yes, it lacks "wow factor", as one of you told me. But I love it!
CNovack, I tried to crop as you suggests, but the result wasn't satisfactory at all. I like that one can see that the boy is sitting on his father's shoulders.
Bye
Guido

| Boyhood wonder. I wish we could have seen just a glimpse of his face. |

| I love the emotion and mood captured here! The young boy gazes at the fighter planes in the distance as he plays with his toy - imagining that that is what he will make his future. He dreams of being able to fly one day. The shot is good but has soooo much potential to catapult into the exceptional score category. The composition would be stronger if you cropped out the people's heads below such that all we see is the young boy (cropped just below the elbow) and the wide blue yonder with the planes off in the distance. The people do nothing for the shot other than to take away focus from your star attraction - the little boy and the planes. Also cropping out a little off the right so that the boy is in the bottom right corner would strengthen it more. Our eyes would see the young boy with his toy plane first then travel off to the blue sky with the planes off in the horizon. |
