Indeed the guy in the middle does have a brother! //dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=35006

Well, I'd have also dressed them in Levis and spelled it "jeans."

Love your repeating jeans background! Nice family photo.

clever idea but i think the photo is just off the mark - the gap in the jeans behind grandpa, the lighting is a bit off. the expression on the kids face is great.

this is an effective take on the subject, but the lighting is too dim and uneven for the shot.

A really good idea, but the lighting is just a bit off on this one. The overall image has a distracting blue-ish tint to it. Otherwise, it's great -- it's sharp... the white shirts, positioning, etc., is cool.

I love the expression in the childs eyes here. The white shirts were probably the only things you all had alike, but I would really like to see some color in the clothing. I like the concept :) The opening in the background above the older man's head is distracting as well as the upper right area that is wrinkled. Nice genes :)

Great idea, pity about the backdrop - just a tiny bit more care would have made a big difference - like the portraits

Really nice genes. :) I think your white has too much blue in it. Do you? And maybe, for me, just a tad lighter would be good. (imo, of course)

Very clever. A little blue cast but a good picture. Grandad has his t-shirt inside out. (Now what does that matter?)
