This is a cool picture. I like the expressions you have captured, they look like they are having a good time. Contrast and focus looks good, overall composition is nice, I would crop this to make it more square and then it would be perfect (that would give it balance). Nice!

This is an adorable shot and an adorable child as well. I would have rather seen it in color, but then, that is my preference as a watercolor artist. This is the kind of scene I love to make into a painting.

The grayscale in this photo is cool. I liked the way you used the tube to focus on the subject... Very cool! Thank you...

allisongonzalez, this is an appealing photograph. You have manged an interesting tunnel effect which is well done. The far background, the trees, as well is very effective, but the middle ground is much too washed out from over exposure and your subjects' faces are too dark to be able to show much of their features. I know, this would be a tricky shot to expose well. And, after all is said, the image still has a lot of appeal. Peace, Papa.

Thanks for the feedback! I haven't tried to work with the photo yet but I will try to change the middle ground exposure as you suggested for better contrast. Thanks!

:) I love it. This is great in all its youthfilled bliss. This is centered nicely, the black and white approach gives a nice touch to the cylinder cropping of the two with those awesome smiles. The lighting really shines in just the right places. How could someone not leave with a smile on their face upon reflecting on this one. Now that's affecting art.

What a marvelous and unusual shot. I love the happy faces on the boy and the daddy. Even though this was a staged shot the playtime expressions are fantastic. A very fun photo that shows the love between adult and child. There is nothing I don't like in this photo.

Thanks for your response! Dyson was doing a "peekaboo" game with me as his Dad put him in the tunnel then pulled him out. It was fun to try to catch the moment!
