Hello Caleb,
A simple picture, but very appealing. The man and the child are well placed, the green door frames the picture nicely to the left and the brick wall forms a fine background. The messages in Uiguri and Chinese provide a cultural information.
Regards,
Gert

Dear Caleb,
i like your picture a lot
probably because of the combination of the place you put the father and son, the red color of the child shirt and the thing written on wall plus the attention of a father or grand father for his son
well done
all the best

Hello Caleb
Beautiful photo of the old man and the infant.
The wall and the road make a great surranding.

I really like the colors in this picture. Nice detail on the bricks, and the writing on the wall gives this alot of character. Both man and child have good expression. TFS

Hello Caleb
I always liked this kind of pictures where there is a human elment with the environs around. This is a really amazing eyecatching picture with great shapes inside. The old man with the baby on his knees has a great effect and the writes on the wall is a good balancing formation with him. Great job best regards ihsan

Hi Caleb,
You've positioned the man and child perfectly in the frame, and although it is a little beyond the rule of thirds, it works extremely well as it seems to balance the wall filled by chinese writing. The man and child remain the centre of attention, but one can't help but be drawn to the red characters on the brick wall. Very natural colours, composition and good lighting. Well captured.
Cheers Grant

Hey Caleb,

Another good one, I like the effect of the spray painted lettering on the decaying bricks...almost graffiti like in appearance. Wouldn't have minded having the man staring into the lens with this one just to maintain some further interest.

hello Caleb,

Very nice compo with the red writing on the wall. An image from a place that not many of us will visit.
greetings, inn

i am a big fan of this compo! the choice of these writings on the wall counterbalancing this man and child on his knees is spot on! excellent framing and crop!

Textures, foreign script, complimenting colours in a environmental portrait will get kudos from me everytime.!!

Excellent shot Caleb,

Your spacing on this photo is perfect, with the interesting kanji and arabic painted on the wall!

Then a father and son (perhaps) balancing out the concrete wall. Nice colours.

Regards,
David
