Nice job of hiding Waldo. Hidden enough to make us look and not so well we couldn't find him. The colors are nice and using the whole picture makes more room for us to try an find Waldo. When my students are given an assignment the one thing I stress is to shot at a creative angle. Lay down on the ground, climb a ladder, something rather than shooting straight at the image. This will give the viewer a different point of view and make the image more appealing to the eye. The lighting is a little harsh on the face. This is because the light meter in your camera is reading the dark background. If you went up close took a reading of the face and then locked it in, return to the area where you shot and take the picture, you would not have that glare. You may have notice this is what all professional photographers do only they will use a hand held light meter. These are way more accurate than your camera meter. Hope this helps in the future.

Aha. Just spotted the face in the bush. Took some time. Nice job of hiding him. Also beautiful photo. Nice backyard. One to be proud of. But curiosity has me. What is the bright blue spot half way up on the left side in she fence. That caught my eye the very first thing, and I keep going back there. Good job.
I'm going to assume that this is a cut out of a head which is placed behind the bush. in this case, it fits the challenge nicely. Creative, thought out and executed nicely as well. The angle and framing/cropping are good. It's nice to seet the main subject off to one side. There is a blue spot over towards the left of the photo, I'm not really sure what it is, but being so bright in the photo, it's a bit distracting. if its something with your camera, than I understand that you couldn't edit it out, but if you were to have this photo outside the challenge, then it may be a good idea to clone over that bright blue spot. the only other suggestion I may have is that the window is a bit cluttered. I'm not sure if it's something inside the building, or if the window its self is dirty, but being so near to the bush, my attention is also drawn to it, and stays trying to figure out what's wrong with it. it's a nice shot. and i'm jealous of that green grass! :) good luck in the challenge.
This is a nice crisp photo. I see a head but no body or feet, are they in the shed there? Or is that a picture of a head? Challenge met and good photo, well done.
challenge met. i like the bright colors of the grass and the shed. they make the photo. i wonder if you could've framed the shot so that those colors dominate the photo more, maybe a vertical crop that still includes the person hiding behind the large shrub. good job on mostly excluding the sky.
