((first image in your portfolio that JUMPED at me because of the color- it 'wow's me. the motion, the colors the overall form presented while still remaining abstract appeals to me.

Children love bubbles!

i think a closer zoom/capture would give this more of a 'wow' factor for me... the little girl with her arms grinning at the bubbles- is an excellent focal point- the rest seems very distracting to me... - i think its because i can clearly see her expression of joy and laughter as she's about to clap her hands on a batch of bubbles - zoomed in on her with the others in the background either sharp or a little OOF its very colorful so perhaps that is also what is pulling my eyes all over the place.. maybe - as is ... black and white conversion? or selective de-saturation? just thoughts/suggestions- its about 1am - just trying to comment and be helpful! :-) goodluck !

Peanut Butter and Fluff Sandwich
by whiterook

Comment:
hmmm if this were mine i'd probably hope someone would comment- so I shall :-) - perhaps a solid colored background would have been a wiser choice? instead of a brown table that looks like it has lights over head reflecting on it- and is nearly the same color as the peanutbutter... the flash used left harsh shadows- a diffuser or something to that effect might have helped (tissue over the flash to mute it down a bit and give it more of a feathered feel sometimes works) perhaps arranging the display of the items more creativly to captivate your viewer? (ie: take a single slice of bread, do a swirly design of peanutbutter and jelly together on it and set it on a simple black or white background...? just suggestions thoughts-- I really hope that my comment helps - goodluck

other things to note - the saturation was punched a bit high for this entry- it looks like you dodged and burned some element out of the upper corner so its a tad distracting... perhaps even just a long exposure with one directional light would have helped? sepia/black and white /

interesting choice of saturation/desaturation/ editing- it really fits the i mage and the flowers- i wish the shirt wasnt so blown out but I can also see how it might add to the photo- by not taking up too much attention that way... i like the almost drawn effect of the image-- it could potentially be a greeting-card :-)

Boys love to climb trees

this is a nice c rop- there are some lovely colors in the image, i wish it was more in focus, and perhaps dodged and burned a bit more (the blown out leaves at the bottom under the child draws my eye down and off the page- away from him, the great tree- angle in the pic keeps my eye from wandering off uptop... but maybe taking advantage of the advanced editing option to sharpen would help? :-)

Boys will be Boys

interesting perspective/composition- cant really see what is going on with the subject tho his body-language is indicating he is pulling something out of or dropping something into the water? i wish i could see better what he is doing perhaps a different angle? or a rule of 3rds crop might help? my eye keeps going to the blury stick to the right - behind his head... then to his plaid underwear sticking out of his jeans - yep boys will be boys...

really sharp photo- love the colors and the feel of action tho the subject is standing still... nicely done! :-) the classic fake smile just makes me laugh because all kids seem to do that when they see their photo being taken :-)
