The highlighted cheek, hair and lashes provide a wonderful line. For my eye, The child's arm shape is distracting. I might crop just above the horizontal armpit line and 5% from the right for balance (also removing the suggestion of the other child's eye to make him a little more abstract). Soften the edge of the highlight at the top of the arm. Burn in that highlight somewhat and perhaps also the right side of the OOF one above the left eye (not the in focus area beside the left eye). I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on these points. Very much easier for me to learn by dissecting someone else's pictures rather than my own. Feel free to tell me how I have got it wrong ;-) Cheers Hoppy -----Original Message----- Subject: [Leica] IMG: kid shot http://www.fullflavor.be/_POR0880.jpg C&C welcomed & appreciated.
