fine framing for this sunny capture caleb, the pastel colours are really nice. What does she have in her hand? Sugarcane?

That composition is working great with the girl perched on the step and her head tilted in towards the open space. Its got a nice graphic nature. The colors are beautiful too with the pastels for the background, and her darker colors popping her out for focus. Nice job.

Hi Caleb, Good capture of this sweet face. I like that she is looking sideways into the vacant space, rather than directly at the camera. Cheers, Steve

Hi Caleb,

Not really sure why this photo hasn't amassed more praise over the last couple of weeks it's been on TE. I think it's absolutely wonderful. The girl is beautifully framed - it almost seems that she is lifting her feet up to fit in your shot and I love her joyful expression. She is well placed on the right-hand side looking into the shot and the door behind her adds some much needed detail to a background that otherwise may have been (IMO) a little too bland without it.

Wonderful detail and well exposed. There's slight evidence of over-exposure in the white paper she's holding but let's not be picky, eh?! It's a small price to pay for near perfect exposure everywhere else.

Great shot, Caleb - I like it alot!

Regards,

Rich

Hello Caleb,
I am falling behind on my critiques, and I am quite late in writing about your photo. Your photograph is up to your usual very high standards of excellence. This is a surperb image and I love the lovely smile of this young girl who is obvioulsy full of great joy. Your compositions are always very unique and interesting and I like the way that you slightly overexposed the image to give it a light and airy feeling to compliment the girl's high spirits. The textures of the stucco type of material is also very effective. Outstanding!

I happened to meet your gallery which is really beautiful. I like the smile of the girl, not centered in the frame, and the perfect crop and composition. The pastel background is perfect to enhance the subject.

Hi Caleb,

Joy is such a wonderful emotion to treasure like this .. it is contagious .. the technical stuff really lets this speak. The light colored background really has a great sense of contrast to her .. the composition has created a nice sense of dimension very nice.

take care,

John

Dear Caleb,
This is amazing. The composition is excellent and the smile is a cherry on the top.
I have missed out your gallery for sometime, and I see some great images in there already.
Greetings,
Arnab
