| The motion blur on the hand and sponge contrasts nicely with the face, I think. Makes him (her?) look even more still and calm |

First impression: 6.
The subject is obvious, it fits candid, and the title fits well. The blur on the painter is ok since the boy (assuming it is a boy) is the subject. The color and texture on the boy's face is really great. Very sharp. And his closed eyes set a mood for the image.
There are a few things that hurt the image though. First, the background is a bit bright and distracting, especially right under his nose. I'm not sure what you could do about this, other than trying a different angle when you shoot. Speaking of angles, the profile is a bit extreme, I'd like to see more of an angle at his face (possibly over the painter's shoulder). I took a similar image of my daughter a few months ago, and my favorite shot was when she was looking at herself in the mirror (I was able to get both her reflection and her face).
Yeah, I'll stick with 6. A nice, close, personal image, but pretty static.

This comment courtesy the Viral Comment Experiment (VCE). The VCE is an experiment to see if a large number of quality comments can be generated in a fashion similar to chain letters. The first time you receive a VCE comment, randomly choose five (5) images from this challenge (or another challenge) and leave quality, useful comments/critiques like this one. Make sure to mention good things as well as bad things. Then, see how many you receive in return over the next few weeks. Make sure you copy this VCE notice at the end of each comment. [Obligatory chain letter threat] If you do not make five quality comments within 24 hours, your hard drive will crash and your camera's shutter will fail at an inopportune moment. |

| Nice and unusual, on my monitor some of the opranges around the nose and eye seem a little over exposed but still an appealing image |

| Nice DOF, nice sharp focus on the face. I'm just curious why the fingers are so out of focus when they are at the same depth as the face. Did you purposely blur them? Not that it's affecting my score....just curious. |

| The photo would be much stronger if the hand was in focus. And a braver shot if the eyes were open. The background is a bit distracting. Composition feels a little unbalanced, I feel the face should have been more to the left. |
