Sorry that I cannot see the surreal aspect of this shot. The little girl is cute though :) |

Ahh. Like oranges. Wish I could see what was in her hand. Then it all might make sense. The picture itself os pretty good. Wish there was more light on her face. |

I realize you probably receive a lot of comments already that this isn't exactly surreal. However, I would like to offer some construtive criticism of the photograph - it's a really nice portrait - your daughter has lovely expression and you caught her in a great moment. I think though, that in dark situations like this you should steady your camera on a tripod or on something sturdy if you cannot afford a tripod. Low lighting like this can result in a bit of camera shake, even on your end that will blur your image slightly. It looks like the focus isn't as sharp because o fthis. Your composition is quite good, but I would suggest trying to look at your negative space a little bit more. You could have made the main subjects pop right off the page in 3D with a little bit of shallow DoF - the negative space doesn't really do anything for the image. With a shallow DoF, you would only see the shape of the negative space and you wouldn't be distracted by tree branches. Good luck in this. |

If you moved the sink outside just for the photo, you were on the right track, but your result just looks like a child playing outside in a backyard. Now if she was cutting up a lobster with a hammer and had her face painted like a wild indian, while wearing 20 foot stilts, and had the sink filled with milk and metal bolts, you might have surrealism. Know what I mean? Dreamlike. |

I don't get it. Looks very real, not at all surreal - 1. |
