DS 43--Door

lizzard_nyc

I can't quite nail this one--I'd like to blame my 2 year old daughter, but really I'm just struggling here.

This is what I have on my re-shoot.

Working title---"Fee Fi Fo Fum" that's my idea---
My husband's idea for title "I'm gonna need a bigger door".

C&C welcome--quick swift kick in the rear needed--feel very stuck!

Try a combo of the two with the hand reaching through BUT showing his/her eye through the door. Maybe have the unsuspecting toy looking away and shoot with hand reaching, but before s/he grabs it...

Liz,

You have a great idea here. You have elements in each of the versions that you've taken. I agree that they aren't quite put togehter yet.

I remember my kids at 2 yo....I appreciate your challenge!

I like the first one of this set the best. I like the door in focus and the child (that's clearly up to something...adds tension!) out of focus.

In your first set, I loved the contrast between the girl and her playhouse vs. the red truck.

If you aren't still shooting, then I'd vote for #1, this set. My only nit is to clone out the hair in the bottom right of the door.

Chris and Rainbow,
Thank you both for commenting--
I was able to reshoot this morning and I finally got one I"m happy with.

I managed to get the door in focus--and I got my daughter's face blurred but visible. I just like it, first one I've been happy with.

Thank you both for your advice and for the encouragement.

Liz,

I love your entry! Brilliant job. Sorry I had no advice to give, but I think you nailed what you were "shooting" for. Great and fitting title as well. Bravo.
