I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

Nice dof on the flower, but I don't really see this as a candid. Children and candids really go hand in hand, as they do not really contain their emotions or actions. This does tell a bit of a story, but I do believe the child is awares of the camera. I prefer to see a bit more a comfort zone lost for the photograher.

Good. I'd mono'ed it, thus making blown highlights on the nose slightly less obstructing.

Good picture. I'm not crazy about the background, but the dandelion looks good.

The idea is good, but in a candid shot, the subject being candid should be in focus.
