| Hey Cindy! I gave this shot a 7 because it does something remarkable: it tells a story. Your title got it perfectly. Somehow, despite all the apparent chaos in the picture, the subject is clearly the little girl who is being forced to wait, even though she is no bigger than any of the other figures and even though her back is turned. Part of it is centering, but also the fact that the picture is divided in two with her in the center. We've got the twins on one side and the larger kid on the other, with the playground equipment helping you to divide the scene in two. Her head seems to be turned down, which conveys her disappointment perfectly. The boys are completely oblivious to her. Capturing a story in a picture is one of the finest things a photographer can do. Nicely done (and the more I talk about it, the higher I want to make my score! :) ). |

| Nice idea, sharpness, composition. Just too many backs, at least one face and set of eyes would be better. |

| I would have preferred to see more faces. Moreover, the black&white is kind of dull in this photo. It seems that the 50% of the photo is within +/- 5% of the same shade of gray. You could have played more with different color channels and selectively (color-wise) shift hues and brightness to achieve more dynamic photo. |

| Sharp but a little gray due to lack of major white areas. My eyes are drawn to the white shoes right off. |

| while this is sharp, no, amazingly sharp, with great contrast etc...everyone seems to have their back to us and so there is no real focal point. without your title (which is good by the way) it's just a bunch of kids ignoring a photographer...hope that comes across OK |
