    I really like the boy. To me, you managed to captured a 50s mood, with the slight softeness of the image, softness of colour, the kid's hair, the shirt, everything and it works for me. Nice composition too. I also like the fact that he's frowning.

    The dog, on the other hand, doesn't. (Sorry, but I believe in being honest) He's doesn't look sharp to me, he's got the animal equivalent of red-eye and it just doesn't do anything for me. It leaves me asking myself: why?

    Also the composition isn't quite right (think rule of thirds) - I'd crop in tight around the top of the head.

    A good start though! Keep going.

    Hi Jwear.. I'm not sure you can put two in one frame unless you have a smugmug account and can link as many as you like.. I'm not certain about that but I think when you "attach" an image you are limited to one per post.:D

    I like the photo of the boy and the expression. I would tend to lessen the yellow in the photo. The sun hits my computer screen, so I may not be seeing the colors correctly. I would say the dog doesn't do it, although he is cute.
