This is one of my favorites on the whole site. Excellent composition and it gives me a down-home feeling. Nicely done and congrats on your top 10 finish :)
Cute and nicely spotted. I have to disagree with color, it doesnt fit here IMO. I would crop it verticaly, boys and bridge. Would make much stronger picture.
Man, finally a shot I can sink my teeth into. only the second 8+ after, let's see, 162 votes. Sepia was a great choice. The props are excellent and the composition is nice. Personally I would have tried to squeeze just a bit more sharpness out of it, but I fully realize I'm a total sharpness hound and not everybody else has the same feeling. 8 for now, could bump later.
Another fishing shot!
But this is really different! Two kids, two friends, maybe two brothers? So similar and so different. Fishing is not the pleasure here, going some where with a friend is! Fishing could be anything else; it is just a case, an accident. To me this shot is about friendship and this is why I like it.
I'm afraid for the unpleasant, all in focus background that makes beautiful an otherwise wonderful shot.
Gave you a 5, but if the subjects were cropped just a bit more to the left and not close to center, it would have been a 6. Even a bit more contrast may have landed you a 7.
