Hmm, impressive picture. The smaller one looks just like the bigger one a few years ago. That's what people have said about my younger brother an I. I think their feet should be in the shot, though. (6)
Really nice shot, great light. The image looks more sepia than black and white though. If it's truely black and white, please advise and I will have my monitor reprofiled
Excellent portraiture - I'm sure the family of these two boys would love to have this presented in their home. As a portrait, it couldn't be improved on in any way I can think of.
Great portrait, love the expressions and the overall mood! I would have scored it even higher if the feet were in, can't go wrong with little toes in the water :) Cute kids
Lens quality showing through here! Nice composition, light angles and balance. Contrast level troubling on the two boy's shorts and legs. 9. Good luck!
screw the anti-duotone people. I LIKE IT! I'd add at least one full point to the score you're getting, and that's what it *should* have received, but the anal-ysts will mark you down i'm sure.
I love this image. great directional lighting from the sun - you positioned them just right in my opinion. I'd prefer if the crop were tighter, or if the boys weren't right in the middle of the frame; I figure if you want the surroundings in the frame - give them the chance to shine. If you *don't* want them in...crop 'em out. just my opinion. really like the shot.
The fact that you cut off their feet kindof ruins it for me personally, either I would have liked to see a wider shot with the feet in the picture or a much tighter crop, maybe waist up. Good shot though, good lighting used.
