Very cute. 2 things keeping me from REALLY likeing the shot. :-) First, the child's expression looks like he was told to act surprised. (Maybe he really was -- but I can't help laughing at the expression. *grin*) More than that, however, this is really flat tonally. Apart from the cookie jar, nothing else has any real shadow values -- everything's just kind of middle grey. (The flash highlight off at the edge of the window needs a little work as well.)
I love this little guys expression. A couple of suggestions -- crop the nose off (the pic not your face *grin*), and I think it needs a little more black or have more contrast to be a really good black adn white. (Just a side note: I have the same canister set, except mine is forest green.) karmat
Your model seems to be enjoying himself, how many cookies did he get for helping. I like this picture, real fear is so hard to catch and you did a good job of making it up. A 7 by Autool
I see supprise, well maybe fear of the impending punnishment, ok it's a strech to fit the challenge but I will accept it. I like the effect of the cookie jar being the only true black in the picture, I just would have liked to see more of it. One of my top picks this week.
meeting challange = 5, photo quality = 3 - recommend cropping a bit on the left to avoid having the nose hanging in the upper part of the shot. total = 8
Good job! I like this one, it has a lot of character. Minor nitpiks are to crop mom's nose out because we don't need it to know who he is looking at and where she is. Also would be better to blur the background if possible by using a small aperture setting. The focus is just a bit soft on the boy.
I love this picture!!! I like that you made it B&W and I love the swingset in the background. Great look on the boy's face, looks like he was really caught! I love it and I give you a 10!!
