Play Time is a good example of the single out category. After looking at the photo and reading your photographer's comments, it makes much more sense as to why. I like the 4x3 approach, I don't know if I would have noticed without reading your comments, so I am very thankful you posted that. I also think people probably would have voted higher also if they understood what you were trying to do, like if we could see the comments during voting. I really do like the layer and contrast you used to give more depth the shot and single out the subject. The grain is probably a little distracting for some voters, they may even have thought it was a photographic error as opposed to the impression you were trying to achieve. Also I think black and white was a great choice, colors might have taken away from the subject too much.
I think this is one of those piece that you should be very proud of you defiantly captured the subject in a prefect manner. |

good looking kid captured at a good moment. i'd have liked to see a tighter crop on him; I don't think the background kid's face is necessary |

Nice use of shallow DOF to isolate your subject. Would have voted this even higher but seems a wee bit grainy to me. Good luck |

Not sure the noise/image grain works real well on this, at least for me.
Challenge was well met.
The black shadow/vignetting on the bottom and left side is a bit distracting. (6) |

The kid is cute, but why is this shot interesting to the others? The objects in the left part of the frame, whatever it is, does not add to the photo anything other than demonstrating how DOF works, and the same can be said about the kid no the right. |

Nice shallow DOF and singled out of a crowd. Did the B&W really look better than the coloured one? I asked because the little guy looks a little lost visually and that maybe his jacket would help in his standing out. |

This could have been a good picture but either the ISO was set incorrectly or the post processing grain was just too much. 3 |
