| I am thrilled that you are going out of the box, timfy! Unfortunately, I only gave you a 6, because I didn't like the offcenter composition with black background, created a big dead space imho. But otherwise this is a terrific exciting shot! |

| I quite like this one and am rather proud of you for submitting something that's "out of the box" for you - I figure you were pretty sure this wouldn't be a mid to high 6. Very creative, very well executed, and that ring light does magical things with eyes! |

| I feel like if the flower is going to come into my face...it should be in focus. I wasn't sure, at first, that it was a flower until I read your title. |

| That is such a charming picture! I like how you chose your focus even if the DOF is quite short, it works really well. It's really the "in your face" thing that children often do. |

I really like this concept, it is fun. However, there are a few things that really distract me. For one, the flower, it seems very smudged/blurred blown out in my opinion. Very distracting and being a large part of the image, it really brings it down. Second, would be the colour on the kiddo. The darker areas look really dirty and flat. It appears the highlight areas like his cheek look really nice but the rest is icky. Also, the catchlight in his eye is really distracting as well.
I would really like to see this without the blur on the flower and more even lighting. |

| Shouldn't the focus be on the flower with the kid a bit out of field? Can't get into this one. |

| It might just be me, but considering the theme of the shot, I'm thinking it might be a stronger photo if the focus were switched, the flower in focus and the person blurred. I like the negative space to the right, but I think the composition would be stronger if the flower (especially since it is already cut off on the edge) were lowered so it was full in the corner. |

| Nice idea, but if you are going to focus on the child, i think the flower should cover less of the face, maybe move your subject to the right to fill in a little more of the dead space. Or even try focusing on the flower and having a little less DOF. Other than that good shot! |

| sniff "this"..."aromatherapy"...both words suggest that the flower is the main subject, not the adorable cute kid. Hence, i think the choice of dof is incorrect. Also why would such a young kid suggest aromatherapy to someone? |

| I would have loved to see more of the babies face or have the flower in focus because this is a beautiful shot but having the big blurry thing in the side really throws it off. |
