Photo 6 (the toddler girl engaging with the flamingo lawn ornaments) resounded with me. During this morning's discussion, we talked about how angling the camera slightly can render dynamic a composition that would otherwise be static. You successfully accomplished this, and there's a neat skewness to the composition that mimes the helter-skelter skewers of the bird ornaments. I also appreciate that you captured the image in the instant that the other child's legs were positioned to perfectly align with those of the flamingo in the back - it's a funny superimposition!
This week's photographs, 2-7 and 9, appear to be from the perspective of a child indicated by the angle of the shots, which is fitting because you have at least three photographs featuring children. I find this an interesting method of taking photographs especially after today's discussion!
Your photos seem to tell a story and I love that about them! The 6th image is my favorite- I love how you can't see the subjects faces. It makes it mysterious and the viewer wants to fill in the blanks and explain the story behind the photo
The story telling aspect of these weeks photos are great. The 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 7th photos really capture a moment and it keeps the audience interested.
The 4th photo say a lot from showing so little. You can guess your own story just by focusing on the subjects hand. It's a great perspective and the tonal values are excellent.
There's a special sort of candid charm in this set of photos that really shines through. The detail of the hand in the fourth shot draws your eye to that central focus effectively. I especially love your eighth shot for its simplicity and blurred motion, which evokes a sense of calm yet adventure.
