Love the light, and the shadow of the hand on the ground. If it weren't basic edit, I'd crop out the two diagonal shadows on the right hand wall, or at least the longer bottom one. Love the smile and look on the older kid. 9, bump to 10.
Oh hello again :-)
Ok, gotta admit I don't get much of a decision feel on this image. He looks rather happy where he is. Don't think he's really considering his options.
But it's one helluva photo! ah damn...as always...
Ok, so I'll take it by his hand that he's about to get up and split. U earned it fair. 9
This is a beautiful candid or perhaps capture should be the term. He looks, slightly embarassed, laughing about the photographer who is taking his picture and sharing that feeling with the little one. It is exquisite in finishing. The tones cover a wide and well defined range, the lighting works very well with the play of shadow and the borader compliments the image. Without the title, it does not offer me any sense of a decision being made. There is no 'wheels of thought' feeling from the image, it is more of humor and sharing a secret. In another light I could see a better link, however I can only offer a 4 for sheer beauty of the image as other images have such a stronger invocation of the air of decision.
I feel like the decision should be clear without having to read the title. In this case, it isn't, so even though it's a nice picture in its own right, I don't think it meets the challenge well...
Cool photograph, but its a stretch to meet the challenge. You are relying only on the title. Your picture itself doesn't show true decision to me. I respect the shot. I like the shot. But I dont feel its completely on topic.
