Thanks for all the comments. However, I wish everyone would have known that it wasn't set up! I'll remember to put something in the title next time to relay that.
I was washing the dishes when I looked over and saw my son playing with the light bright. My first thought was "BACKLIGHT!". I ran and grabbed the camera and used a cereal box for a base :-)
This was the best pic of the group because his hand was over the bulb, and his head was at just the right angle.
Thanks to all,
Chad |

Cute shot.
I might have tried draping something over the chair and moving it so that there was a clear wall behind the head of the child - putting all the focus on the the child and the light. Instead, I'm trying to figure out what's behind his head. Another idea would be to have the light on a flat top surrounded by clear surface that would have accentuated the pattern that the light is throwing on the walls. But I think the back of the chair and the frame on the wall detract from the impact. |

| The main subject, (the boy) and the light source are very well done and then the chair seems to be almost an afterthought? |

| I think this would be better if u moved the chair and the kid to the right so u had a plain backround. The picture frame and electrical socket are a bit distracting. 5 |

Very clever! A few suggestions. A slightly better placement of the chair, in order to eliminate the clutter around the child's head and back would have been helpful to the composition, and a slight adjustment to the angle of your camera would have straightened out the position better. I would also liked to have seen a POV giving us a better look at the child's face, but that's really just personal preference.
The shadows from the lite-brite give and excellent feel to the shot, and the chair is a nice balance to the child. Great idea :) |

| Love the B&W - the pattern of the dots on the walls is great. Would like it better without the frame on the left side. |
