Awesome! Great composition. I really like the "crisp-ness" of it. The focus is excellent as well as the background, the lighting and the title. :D Best of luck!
A pure candid moment effectively captured, rich in detail with a very convincing sense of depth and dimension. Originally, this reviewer had a less than positive reaction to the image while making the ratings pass as it seemed to be less of an effort than some of the more spectacular candid images submitted in this challenge and it was rated at an eight. After initiating the comment review, this reviewer was clearly mistaken in that impression and thus has rerated the image to a nine. The slight technical issues with the direct back lighting effect creating odd highlights on the left hand subject's face and the "halo" effect that led to an initial impression of over sharpening are not sufficiently negative as was first assumed. From an artistic standpoint, this could very well be an advertising image. A worthy entry into the challenge.
