I'm guessing he didn't draw that interesting portrait, is it then a portrait of him? Nice shot, nice concentration on his face. Not sure what the white lines are at the right of the table? I do like this being BW but find the sepia/ yellow too strong for me. 6, Kavey
This is very yellow. I am sure you did it intentionally, so I'm going to leave it alone, however I might have either used b&w or plain old fashioned color. You did a great job in creating the yellowness, just a bit too yellow for me. Setting that aside, You have a great angle of the child and there is definately a pencil in the pic. There is a kind of distracting white string (?) to the right side of the photo on the table. All for a small reflection on the shiny surface in the background, the lighting is great. it is also a very nice drawing, which makes it visually interesting. Good luck in the challenge.
Very good composition. The photo has good focus and depth of field, which is appropriate to the subject and arrangement. My personal nitpick preference would be for B&W or sepia, but the yellow is a bit too strong for me.
From my perspective: Meets challenge:Yes Technical:Good for the most part, but too yellow imho Appeal/Artistic:good Composition:good Originality:good Comments:Very cute child and good idea! Good luck in the challenge.
Genious child? Hmmm. The placement of the sketch and child's face is well done. The orangy-yellow cast? Hmmm. Unique. I don't think I'm sold on the prodigy idea.
