How well you captured that sense of childhood wonder. Beautiful capture of the hibiscus also. Excellent lighting! Nice job.

Interesting, but the expression on the child's face is, well, non-existant. The total lack of expression drains any emotional element from the picture

Great color saturation and brightness and focus is very crisp. I also like the negative space which adds so much richness to this image.

This is a very strong composition. Interestingly, I think it would have also worked without the child's face.

The flower and the leaves are terrific! The face is terrific. Overall: Focus; DOF; Colors; Levels: and so on are very very good. But the combined comp with twin subjects leaves me confused. Show me a little more of the person and make sure I know without a doubt they are mesmerized by the plant.

Excellent setup - the black background works exceptionally well. The lighting is perfect, both on the flower and the model's face. I think it would be stronger if your model was closer to the flower.

I would of perfered the face being closer to the flower, seems to be too much of a void. Nice lighting however! 6
