Strong shot - nice composition and attractive model.

Title fits perfectly - only real critique is that the white picture frame behind his head is blown out - and as the eye is naturally drawn towards bright areas of a picture it leads the viewer away from the main action.

Not much you can do about it in a bsic edit - but might be worth re-editing to see what you can do ?

Very nice though

There is an obvious strong story here which I like. The pictures make it look like a domestic scene, which is good, but their positioning is very distracting, which is bad.

Good lighting and use of DOF add to a very nice photo. Well done.

Superb image. Such powerful emotions being transmitted here. Fantastic natural setting combined with brilliant composition. Deep range of emotions that jump out at the viewer. Fantastic title that incorporates the full spectrum of emotion and feeling whilst illustrating the challenge theme completely. Technically also excellent with a full range of tones and lovely muted colors. Superb detail and excellent dof. Great use of natural lighting.
