I wonder why you chose an image with them facing away from each other?

I find this a little bit dark, but otherwise very nice.

Good use of black and white. I wish they had been interacting more, seeing that they are supposed to be best friends.

They seem pretty uninterested in each other to be really best friends. I think showing more interaction between the two, or at least a smile on one of their faces could've gotten your message across better.

A bit dark and not enough contrast. Good focus, very sharp. Why not color? Photo 9 Creativity 7 People 9 total 8

Good composition. Nice use of b&w. Great focus. The garbage can in the background is a little distracting, but overall a good photograph.

I like this photo, but I believe that it is a little on the dark side. Maybe a fill flash or a little less brightness reduction would have been nicer :)

What works here for me is the framing formed by both the tree and a pattern in the grass. It's a bit dark though. I'd try to frame out the trash can on the head. Might even try a warmer tone paper.

I dunno, they seem mad at each other right now!

Happy meal _people_. Nice b&w, love the light and the feeling of this shot. Great boys, good work.

I think if you'd cropped the top a little tighter you wouldn't notice the trash can so much. Nice black and white.

I love the multitasking: burger in one hand, car in the other. Black and white suited this shot.
