Please, please don't hurt your work by adding a parenthetical comment in the title! You have a decent image here, good contrast, lovely capture of emotion and environment. The wide angle seems to have skewed the horizon line, perhaps you could crop and adjust to keep the verticals upright.... |

The photo itself is very striking, but the caption detracts from it. It's a newspaper heading, so "Sad But True Story" is redundant; if it weren't true. Why would it be in a newspaper?
Regardless, the photo did grab me. Especially the child. Great work! |

Nice house! I can't believe it can be condemed though. It looks a lot like the house I used to live in. |

This goes in order of what I notice first:
1) Sounds like a human interest story...where's the human? Oh yeah...there. Crop to the mother and child, let me see the expressions on their faces, I don't care what the home looks like, I care about the people.
2) I like how the little boy is looking at the camera, but...I can't really tell what his face says, if it were cropped to him and his mother, then it'd be a powerful photo.
3) Too much clutter. Is it supposed to represent that they were kicked out? Doesn't work...The basketball hoop especially is distracting.
Score: 5 |

Maybe if there was a bit more focus on the mother and son then it would've been a better photo. |

beautiful emotions. I think I would have cropped the left a bit more. But apart from that it's a very powerfull image |

Pretty good photo. A zoom in on the emotions displayed would've been much more effective I think. A story like this tugs at the heart, and your photo is cropped to show the possessions being saved which detracts from the emotion being displayed. That's how I see a photo like this for a newspaper shot. I hope they find a new home soon. Poor little kid. |

ahh the injustices of urban america. the little boy looks so oblivious to his mothers depression.... a great image that really conveys something deeper than most of the photos ive looked at in this challenge. a photo that makes you feel is the best kind of all. |
