Very cute-but the focus is a bit soft.

A beautiful photo, I like the use of light and the black&white choice. The little cherub is adorable, but while shown alone.. I just don't get a solitude feeling, nor loneliness. I think there is an inherent feeling of well-being and care to be honest. Maybe its the closeup aspect of the child, not sure. I still think its a lovely image though. 7

Greetings from the Critique Club!

FIRST IMPRESSION:
Very bright multicolored picture which works great for the color challenge.

COMPOSITION:
The cropping is very different for this type of shot. It allows the blue to show through, but I think a flat crop of just the fabric texture would have been more itneresting.

TECHNICAL:
The focus is right on which allows the texture of the fabric to add to the shot.

OVERALL:
I think the dominant color of blue takes away from the colorful bottom of this shot. Maybe a tighter crop would draw more attention to it. Also the blue seems to have some noise from the camera. A filter like despeckle of remove noise would have fixed this nicely. Slightly changing the subject or how the colors were portrayed could have improved this great shot for the color challenge.

Good luck!

This is an interesting idea, but it doesn't quite work as titled. The red hill and roses do fit, but the sky looks like a poorly spray painted wall (I suspect a photo manip here - totally legal one, but didn't quite work). Nice photo of the pillow. 6 Swash

Yep, plenty of color here. Interesting effect with the blue background and the graininess. Good luck.
