| I thought that this one should have done better. Yes the black circle is a little distracting until you read the title. That is what made this photo "click" for me. To me it was like an abducter spying on your child waiting for the right time to take him. For those of us who have children, there is no worse darkness than the fear of something bad happening to our babies!! |

| Thanks to everyone that "got it". The theme of the challenge was to take an image of something that meant "darkness" to you (the photographer...me). This little guy means the world to me and "Losing Him" in any way...well, just can't think about that. |

| I have two little boys! They grow up fast don't they? I really like your use of the "spyglass" effect as it perfectly reflects how we stand back and watch them grow up and head out on their own. Maybe you meant it as something else, but this is what this picture tells me! It almost made me cry, and I'm sure it will make my wife cry! |

Nice color image. Many viewers will think the round black border, though nicely done, is there just to shoehorn a kid picture into a "darkness" challenge and will vote accordingly. It is even taken from a parent level perspective. They will not "get it". This obviously means something to you but will not communicate it to the average voter.
On the technical side a viewer might ask why the bench was included in the composition and will not be able to come up with an answer. The back of the hat is slightly overexposed and should be toned down. |

| Great concept and great execution. Sharp as a bell. Artistically, it's not an image that reaches out and says "wow" to me, but it is very, very nice. Good luck! |

| That's precious. Really like the compostion and how the arch of the flowers mimic the curve of theframe. |

| Like the concept, but I feel that the black circle frame in the shot detracts from the power of the image. |
