    Greetings Guys

    I'd really appreciate your feedback on this image. I like it a fair bit, but i'm curious how it stands up to your collective scrutiny?

    Really like the toning in this image. Not sure if you focused on the eyes or the teeth, almost looks like the teeth are more in focus than the eyes. The concept is wonderful, the expression of the subject is very dynamic, great image overall, for sure.

    Quite a nice shot here, LOVE the smile.
    Matt noticed the eyes as well, they are not tack sharp and they should be. (they are close mind you, but the teeth are sharper as matt also noticed)

    In terms of the violin, I like it, but I wonder if it wouldn't have been better without the bow.

    Hope that helps and I'm sure the subject will dig the shot despite our comments.

    very nice Peter, the subjects facial expression seems to be one of sheer joy
