Very nice composition. Stopped me in my tracks. It's a little baffling to me that the child would be watching a TV without a signal though. The snow on the screen is echoed by the noise in the rest of the picture. It's an interesting effect but I would have preferred a totally black background. This picture's a keeper but after the contest, I'd clean up the noise in Photoshop.

Isn't there a horror movie that starts this way? Creepy photo...

Interesting image with a message. Good idea and well done.

Rather dim and hard to see. This concept would probably have worked better as a sillouette against the tv screen.

Haha cool.
The quality coul've been better though, very grainy (child).

Excellent. Really great composition. The child's face could be a tich lighter to really stand out from the black background. This could work for the Multiple Lighting Source challenge too! This shot is really several notches above what I've been looking at for this challenge. Kudos!

I like the darkness of this image and the mezmerized look on the child's face - well composed. I'm not sure if its lacking focus, or if its just the dark exposure, but I would like to see more sharpness / clariy in the child's face.

Good social commentary, it would work better for me if you had cartoons or something like that on the TV

Wow, I love this photo, the noise cast on the child's face by the tv, the stark black background. Nicely done.

good photo! You should print a version that you can edit... bring out the kids' face some more!

Wow. Powerful image. At first I was going to mark down for the black specks in face, but I like the comparison to the tv screen. Great photo all around.

I love the concept here but the picture is way too dark.
