I love the upsidedown, the substantial spider and the casual light web.

nice shot, maybe you could have put 'the object' in that light from the window?

Are those unmentionables hanging there? What a great attic.

The shadow and color in the bottom center looks like two little girls standing in the corner. Don't know if you intended on that but it makes the photo interesting.

good interpretation, love the colouring. I like the lack of sharp focus overall yet the stone edges are neatly done.

Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club.

First Impression: Love the reflection of the cheeky little face in the TV. Sadly (for me) its overpowered by the colours that look a little 'odd' to me.

Composition: A few commenters mentioned the tv should have been the main subject and I tend to agree with them and would have preferred seeing a little more of it.

Subject: A lovely portrait shot and am sure it will look great in the family album. The backgound is a little cluttered for me (again thats more for the challenge than family album shot). I had thought about a square crop but then you'd have lost that great carpet. Maybe nitpicking but the cut off arm is a little distracting.

Technical: I think this area let the image down the most, the overuse (imho) of the shadow/highlight & possibly saturation tools have messed with the colours - almost HDR like but don't think it helps the image at all.

Final thoughts: Although the link to household appliances is here its rather vague and feel in challenges its important to make the challenge topic stand out. Granted some shots ribbon when only marginaly meeting the challenge but they are normally excellent images in their own right. Keep them coming Dirk!

Ready for take-off!

I can never get them to pose for me. How do you do that?

This is sweet. What a great way to capture a portrait. I think I'd like to see some of the right side cut off to put more emphasis on the babe and her reflection.
