this is a very nice portrait. i can't really find much to say about it. good use of light and tones, well framed, good depth of field. the lighter texture of the background on the right sets apart the subject nicely and creates a nice sillhouette. there's something i can't put my finger on that keeps me from really loving this, but it's definitely very well done. 9.

Greetings from the CC!

OK, this is boring... I get to critique the winning pic and one of my tops in the challenge. Tough job when you find a photo technically flawless!!!!

Lemme try..... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

THEME: Respected!

COLOR & LIGHING: You got your w/b spot on which makes your skin tones as they should be. Your lighting is soft and creates a wonderful mood.... tranquil.

FOCUS: nothin' to say... spot on!

COMPOSITION: ok, so this is the part where I rip your photo apart right?? Hmmmmm..... you know, I don't know what I could have done better IMO. Having the child with eyes closed focuses on the sense of hearing. The hand on the belly shows caring and gentleness not to mention the slight smile. All these creating the perfect mood for the shot.

Having kept some negative space on the right showing the arch in the back give depth to the belly and continues to add softness and balance throughout the photo.

This is an inspiring shot!!!

Keep it up!!!!!!!!
