The darkness in this photo was completely intentional. I must admit that the soft focus is a little too soft. I learned from this shot and thanks for the comments :)
I think the highlight in the eye might be a little too big and too bright in relation to the rest of the picture. I'm also not certain I like the direction that the eye is looking -- perhaps that has something to do with the highlight. I like the lighting otherwise, but wish the skin tones, where visible, were a little bit brighter and closer to "18% gray." (If they are already there, and they just seem darker, then maybe closer to 18% perceptually -- if that makes sense.)
I love the crop on this photo, the way the highlight of the face makes a diagonal line through the photo. It's a perfect expression of the title as well. As a mother, I've seen this look a lot!!! Great job.
Nice use of negative space. I think maybe I could have been happier with a little more detail, a little less dark. The darkness definitely gives it a mood, but I think as it is it strikes me as more menacing than pouting.
Great creative shot...conveys simply, but powerfully, a lot of emotion. I like the gracefull lines the child's features create against the background. Nice pic!
High impact photo, but I think it's tooo dark. Focus seems soft, was that on purpose? More light and more face might have been nice. Photo 6 Creativity 7 People 8 total 7
I like the way you framed this shot, and the b&w. Catching the light in the eye is great, too. I would've preferred the photo to be a little lighter and sharper though.
I like the idea here. Having the face along the diagonal of the photo works well. The forehead seems to have copped a lot of the light, which tends to emphasize it a little too much for my liking
Excellent job with capturing emotion in this shot. It seems just a tad dark, but I suspect you planned it that way. One of my top 10 shots for the week.
Poor baby... I feel the same way when I have to have my picture taken. This is an excellent photo. I really like the shadows and the lighting on the eyes, forehead, and lips. It captures the emotion that seems to be pouring from the child.
