Hanif, nice use of the ROT! I really enjoy the bottom photo! Where did you take this? Did you go to a wedding this weekend? I love how the background is so black; it really makes the boy stand out! Nice work.
One other thing. On second look, I still love the placement of the boy; however, his eyes and face are not in focus! His bow tie and flower are, but his eyes, which are very important, are out of focus.
I like the one of the orange. Ah! It just captures the essence of all the wonderful things about oranges. I know it sounds very crazy but its like I can feel the juice spattering and spell the orange oil when I look at that picture. Nice work! -Lauren
I love the little boy's face! And the eyes are a bit blurry, but it still a nice photo I believe, though it would be better if they were in focus. ~Tia'Rashell
