Wow... I'm surprised this didn't do better. I thought that the room and bed looked great. Very photogenic. I also felt that the silhouetted children made the shot more generic (as in; "this could be you or your children").
Good potential here, but I wish the kids weren't underexposed. Did you use flash on this? That could help. Also might get rid of that blur on the kid on the right.
A little additional foreground lighting would have brought the detail of these children out quite a bit more. The back lighting is providing a 'sihlouette' effect on the children and it's hard to really see their facial expressions in this photo :) Good job!
you needed to use the flash here. There isn't a lot of light in the photo, and the kids are lit from behind. Because you needed to stop the kids mid-air, you can't use a longer exposure. The ceiling isn't the prettiest either ... unless you were really trying to get one of the kids to bump his head :)
That's a wonderful picture but I think its ruined by the backlight. Children have wonderful expressions on their faces so light should be on their front.
Really fun picture, but the best part I can barely see. The setting is important to this shot, but it's the only well lit portion. I REALLY want to be able to see the expression of the child on the right. It looks like it would be killer. Your focus should be on the children and their faces -- they look like they're having fun, but because they're not well lit, your audience realy has to work at seeing it.
This one could've been entered for stopped motion and (almost) from the ground up, too. I love the idea, however, the picture is too dark, you can barely make out the two faces. Try with a fill-flash next time?
Wonderful expressions on those little faces....:) Pretty sure my kids all have played that "game" more than a couple of times. The light from the window behind wasn't your friend IMO, it made it impossible for me to see those faces as much as I would have liked to.
This would have fit in with the stop action challenge. I think lighting could have helped a bunch.... My mom would never let me play this game! tee hee
