Great focus shot. Very centered subject that differs from those around it. Nice technical photo.

Nice use of selective focus.

Subtle zoom blur? Works to great effect here to drill down into your main subject, where your moment of capture is perfect. 10 right out of the box for me.

There is so much going on (in a good way) that it is hard to stop looking at the image. Very telling image.

Love the blur effect to center on the middle child. Well done.

I like what you were going for here. A bit disorienting though, this picture tells a great story.
