This photo isn't as sharp as it should be. Also I'd have preferred it if you'd used a pencil with a point.

That worked out perfectly, didn't it? I would like to see it with the little cherub moved down just a slight bit so as to not cut off the top of his head and wing. The wing looks a bit dark, but since the other shadows are so mellow, I am led to believe that that is due to the actual color of the wing, and not a lighting effect. Otherwise, great photo. Good luck in the challenge.

I think this is lovely in layout and a feel-good photo. For me the shadow beneath the wing is too dark compared to the strong light coming from behind his head.

Well done. Focus looks pretty good. Lighting looks good. Meets the challenge.

This would be even better if the pencil was sharpened, so it looks like he's used it. :)

The colors are a little bland. Needs something to spice it up a little.

Cute angel. I wish the wing hadn't been "clipped" though (at the top).

I would of like a smaller pencil, to see more of the angel on a dark background.
Sorry but really feel that would of helped here. Still nice try. Score 6 ~Kee

I like the photo a lot, I think it may have been better with a sharpened pencil, but that's just my .02.
