I like the shot as a candid/portrait and his look does emote a lot to us. I think the acid wash doesn't serve a big purpose. You look like you were going for a goodman, but naturally aren't as skilled at the look as she is (who is?). I'm not positive about the square crop either, although I don't think it's a huge minus. I gave this a 4. I did it primarily because the acid action didn't make sense to me. |

I usually like this kind of PP very much, but the fencepost to either side of the horse look pretty funky and are a bit distracting. Other than I really like this, the subject matter and composition are great. |

Great potential but over PP for my taste. |

Great capture. Nice use of contrast. the whites of the boys eyes may have been over done and too bright...but great capture. |

It looks like the horse has got the wire in his mouth? Good title...I wonder who's discovering whom? It seems there is just a little too much yellow - especially in the grass and the poles are a little to over-exposed - they almost have a 'negative' type effect. Oh, now I see...there is actually three horses! Nevermind about the 'wire in the mouth' thing. Good luck to ya and I hope the kid gets to go for a ride. |

A picture tells a thousand words. It's true for yours. Those nags must think the young man has some sugar cubes... |

I would prefer to see the boy interacting with the horse or have no horse at all IMO. the posts seem washed out. |
