Very good shoot Victoria!

Got to love that lighting....Maybe a tat more exposure? I think it is too dark to have it hang up on a wall. Or, mayby crop it a bit tighter on both dark sides so they are not so overwhelming.

Like this? Anyway, I love your picture.

Thank you, Herma, but I'm too sensitive in this matter:) Every milimetre, every shadow, every nuance of color is significant to me. I don't recognize my photograph like this:)

 

Victoria..

 

 

 

Your composition is brilliant. Very attractive light-effect and beautiful color tones. Best regards.

Beautiful photo!!

A cute and appealing image Victoria. One of those that make you smile. Nice work.

Amazing scene and atmosphere. I like the square crop. Congrats !

I think that this photo is beautifully exposed. I can see why Victoria defends the deep shade or "penumbra" of this beautifully composed image. We should not be afraid of the dark in our photos. Slight underexposure often makes for very soulful images. Have a look at how darkness worked for Carravagio.

Victoria is a perfect image exposure, tones and color . The correction of Herma is not correct.

Victoria; I have to side with you on this one. The composition, saturation, exposure, etc. are spot on! If it were my image, I would mount it with a mat, one to two shade darker than the girls shaws, and proudly display it on my wall! Simply beautiful simplicity! Thans for sharing!

Un buen trabajo, excelente contraluz. Saludos

Absolutely wonderful as it is. Regards Henrik

Hi Victoria... I don't blame you for being sensitive about the so called fix!... Your use of light, shade, crop and overall ambiance is what makes this photo special... It brings photography and art together, and creates much more than just a snap shot... If these were my children I would promptly run out the door, have it printed and framed, and mount it smack bang in the middle of my living room!!... Congratulation on a very special image indeed... I just love everything about it!... Best wishes.... Sally...

Magical.

Great highlights and shadows. I love the DOF.

 

Great job.

great work, beautiful light from the back, reflected on her clothes, very sweet scene, natural poses and expression. Well done..!

Your photo makes me smile. I like the light... it's a little ... magical; a little Elfin Magic, Perhaps? Is Bilbo Baggins near? ..... you have captured the magic of innocence in childhood. Thank you.

It also made me smile....and magical is a perfect critique!

Perfect colors and magic mood !

It's perfect just like it is!

I agree with everyone else. Your photo is far better than the "fix", more dramatic and yes, a little magical. You are one of my fav PN photographers. I continue to be amazed by the power of your photos.

 

Victoria,

I think color is distracting in that otherwise terrific image, so the only thing I did is I converted this to sepia. I know this as always up to the creator of the image, but I put this up as a alternative.

Fantastic shot, well seen and excectued. I think the colour makes the shot, the almost silhouetted children works a treat.

 

 

Very creative.
