This is one of the coolest shots I've seen in a long time. Great job on composition and lighting. |

the light spots on the kid are strage but the shot is very nice and would look steller in B&W with the propper editing for B&W. |

The bright flourescent stripes on the child's jacket hint at the foreground flash fill. This an amazing shot, thanks for sharing. |

I'm kind of torn on this photo. I really like the birds and the rest of the compostition works well, but the white stripes on the boys jacket distract me from the rest of the photo. |

Great photo. Would've darkened the kids jacket tho. The white flares there pull my eyes away from the motion of the birds.

Nice love pretty much everything about it except for the reflections of light on the little boy. In particular I love the slight motion of the birds, a very nice capture. Enough for an 8 from me, nice work :) |

This is very nice but it looks like the boy is covered with glowing leeches. What in the world is that on his coat? This would be such a lovely image if it weren't for that incredibly distracting detail. I love the blurred motion of the gulls, the pink sky, and the capture of the boy holding out his offering while his dad looks on. I like the path converging in this distance. There is a real sense of place to this image. The boy could be in sharper focus (and there is that matter of his glowing coat). I'm not sure how to vote on this since I like almost everything about the picture but the glowing stuff is really hard to ignore. |

I like the composition, and I love the way the birds turned out, but the reflective stripes really take away from the whole thing. |

I love how the birds are so blurred against the sky. The overexposure on the boys jacket is a shame though. Other than that, excellent shot! |

would have prefered the people cropped out for 2 reasons...
1)Focal point is the blown highlight on the reflectors on childs jacket rahter than being the child, but my eye would be better drawn to the white building in the background.
2)The white building in teh background would sit on the rule of thirds nicely for a better composition if no.1 was adhered to.
Great shot none the less and would prefer to see the whites in the birds and the white building a little brighter. |

Great shot but the relective tape on the youngsters jacket is distracting to the shot. |

It's not a bad composition. It could have benefited from a slightly faster shutterspeed (which would probably necesitate a stronger flash).
There is one "glaring" problem with the image. The child's jacket has reflectors on it that are very distracting to the eye. The reflectors do take away from the rest of the image. |

This would have been great if the light was better. 4 |

This is truly lovely. The glare on the kid's sweater is a bit annoying, but the overall image is killer!!!! His red had is a nice added touch. 8 |

I love the birds, but im finding that the glowing lines on the child are very distracting |

Love that motion blur for seriously nice surrealism on those birds. Great catch of the one in the middle. I personally feel that I would prefer this picture with about 12% sliced off the left and top and a little bit of that reflection toned down on the coat, but otherwise, it looks pretty nice. |

I was enjoying the beautiful idyllic peacefulness of this scene. UntilI got to the little boys jacket and the white stripes (what is that?) are so harsh that it yanked me right out of my reverie. I think I would have cropped him out. |
