This was a shot I didn't set up, I just stumbled accross the kids having fun in the window. Of course the reflection in the window is me. I enjoy taking photos of my 4 children and am trying to improve my eye and learn more more about composition. I look forward to the feedback on this slightly abstract, but fun picture.

I don't think your score (or some of the comments received) for this image do it justice. The kids have been captured at angles, in poses and at distances from the camera to make it very interesting. This is a great age to photograph - faces are alive, and their eyes tell stories in themselves. I would possibly have cropped the image down a litte to remove the over exposed regions. Given the circumstances it may have been impossible, however, playing around with the camera position may have added to the reflection. I like the image and look forward to your entries to future challenges.


Thanks for your comment.

My whole family is moving from snap shots to really producing artistic photography. I'm proud of my wife for getting this shot, because it shows me her eye is developing. I have to admit we took this in the proper time frame for the challenge, but didn't take it on purpose. We just wanted to get in the game, and this worked out nicely. We'll submit more with planning and creative thought. We'd love some comments on some of our portfolio shots. This site is exciting to us as future (on purpose) photographers because of the great atmosphere created by those who are willing to impart their experience and wisdom.

A very cute shot, but the reflections don't really add to the picture. In fact, they look like something you would try to avoid in any situation, other than this challenge.
