Somehow I missed this one. Really well done. The almost high key approach, the composition and the tack sharp focus come together to create an excellent image. |

Congratulation! Well done, I was so sure it was an Icelandic picture during voting but still dwelling on what gave it up;-) Great to have yet another Icelander collecting ribbons;-) |

Congratulations on your first ribbon. A very well composed picture wich draws attention to what thinking and learning is going on. Nice colors, especially of the eye. Maybe the eye should have been lowered a bit, looking at the top of the page. Flott. |

Way to my friend, congrats on a well deserved ribbon. This is a well composed portrait, clean and elegant. The Icelandic dictionary proves to be reliable for more than writing, solid stuff. Your boys are great models, I guess we will be seeing a lot of them here.

This style is very Icelandic so the votes from here should be good;-) Great work and the eye is clear and seeking education. Thinking about the cropping though and the location of the eye... have to dwell on that one. Still it is a great picture. |

oooooh! I like this shot! GReat composition - very artistic. Love the bright attentive eye - the depth that the book being open adds to the picture, and the texture of the fly away hair. The borders also help with impact. VEy good job! |

the composition and light is just perfect.
maybe a ribbon, definately a 10 ;P |
