Can I have candy yet?

Firsat try with Selective B&W. Comments and Rating most welcome.

 

Thanks and Happy New year

All B&W and a tighter crop would have worked a lot better in this shot imho.

As a B&W photographer, I would have shot this with a selective focus on the candy and the boy, and let everything else drop out. But then, I don't consider the use of color to tell a similar story. Perhaps I'm too limited in my options and film choice. Nicely seen and considered.

Very good composition and very good PP also; I always use selective focus( only the central spot) if I have the time. Best wishes for 2007, Catalin

I really like the color. I think it tells a great story (maybe since I have a son who doesn't like to get his hair cut).

I have been found by a 3/3 proffesional rater http://www.photo.net/photos/alex.conu

Average photographer, very bad rater; Kindly see and rate his work!

 

Thanks for the comments. I have re-posted the image Can I Have Candy Yet? II (Click to view) This is an all B&W version with different focus.

Let me know what you think?
