| Critquing is so subjective and depends on the viewers tastes. Personnally, I did not care much for the content of the photo but the photo itself had several good qualities. Your Point of View (shooting up) makes for a much more interesting photo than if you shot it straight on. I wish more photographers would try and use this Element of Design in their work. You also chose doing a close up, allowing for a lot of detail to be seen, very good. Cropping, if any, is very good. The boy's head is what we first look at and then the leading lines of his right arm brings us down to the image of the second person. The feather in his hat leads our eyes over to the boys left arm and once again we are back up to his face. This trianglular effect keeps the viewers eye continually moving around the picture. If you are aware that this is important you try and compose all your pictures in this fashion so you can keep the viewers attention as long as possible. The lighting could have been better, I would suggest using fill flash even when your outdoors. You will notice the contrast on the boy's face is very harsh. Fill flash would have balanced that out making for a much better image. Keep up the good work,JG |

| I'll have to admit that I had some trouble understanding this photo... The image is technically excellent, but I did not catch on to the theme very easily... - setzler |

| Funny shot, meets the challenge well. I might have liked it if the lighting could have been a bit less harsh, but that is so hard to control in candid shots like these! |
