    Re: Carnival Boy

    Hey there,

    I love the colors in this scene.

    However, as a casual observer, it seems to me that the focus of this shot is lost. What exactly are we looking for? Is the boy doing something unique? You have the background in "focus" and the boy "in motion" but its hard to tell what he is doing.

    I find the truck on the left a bit distracting and would probably crop that off, as there really isnt anything on that side of the frame of interest. WIthout knowing what is to the right of the frame I may have moved the frame over a bit to the right and tried to get the sign on the building in the frame.

    Again, I like the bright cheery colors that you have here (as a carnival should be) but I just dont see "the point" of this picture.

    Cheers,
    Jared
