This photo was actually taken in my yard. My 6 year old son, Zachary loves playing soldier, so he eagerly volunteered for this assignment. I painted his face army style and dressed him in camoflauge. Here he is out in the open:

I really like your processing and his expression is riveting! What a great model. Love how much his face paint looks like the bark behind him. Also like the dead smack in the center placement. Nice work!
Highlights on the leaves are blown. Also, I feel that for this challenge there should be a main subject other than Waldo, with Waldo as a secondary but complimentary part of the photo.
Holy moly this feels like Lord of the Flies or something. Great expression on the kids face and I love the anomaly between the innocence of childhood and the sense you are entering a place were rukes dont apply
Nice take on the challenge, and an obviously very cooperative and helpful model. The colors here work well for their purpose, though the lighting on the leaves is a bit bright for my liking, and the background trees are a bit flat for me, as well. I might have tried not having "Waldo" so close to center, but I'm not sure which direction I might have gone with him.
I like the "blatantness" of this shot....especially after having a headache, trying to find Waldo in some of the others! I was getting a headache, so this is refreshing to see.
OK...great idea, but why would you have him smack bang in the middle? If his face was right against the tree on thefar right and you kept your composition as it is, it would have been far better...when you are trying to hide someone, you don't usually put them in the centre as that's the first place we look! LOL...just want to be helpful 7
