Artist's Comments

I have been working on this concept for days and days and at last I can submit it. I was just trying to create a story with simple vision and message... positivism and energy...
Here is a lot of influnce from Elliott Erwitt [link] . He is one of the best photographers in the whole world I think...
anyway i cant wait to read your opinion. i am a little concerned what ya think. there is still so much i have to learn in this kind of photography...
so please dont hesitate to critisize and just say what you think by watching these works, ok! ;) so what do you see?

thanks. :)

Amazing work. I really like the colours and the spirit of the picture. Want to go out and play like a child...

you have a strength that you want to expose and embrace positivism.i respect you for that, and look up to you too.

but i do have one critique, namely composing these pictures together. personally id make it all along a horizontal line. but thats mostly subjective. otherwise the bottom border gets a bit harsh as a transition. i dont think it has to look like one setting with three persons. maybe for that you could crop a lot of the bottom. otherwise its good you balanced a tree out on the bottom left.

just some thought

I love the concept. I think the last picture in the series is my favorite.

okay, this is amazing! awesome!
I'll comment the best i can 'cus i think it really deserve creative comment...

First i think the title fits perfectly.
The colors are great too, give more value to the kid.
One thing tho, i think you should have cropped the trees
You have capured good movements, my favourites are the top one on the left, and the the right one the the second line.
It must have been really fun to take.
The one in the middle looks like a camel :) the head is the leg, its funny

I dont really know what i can add, i just think its a wonderful piece and its refreshing. its my favourite piece of yours. really nice. perfect technique, its clear too. I dont really see a story, but more like flashes of childhood.

Nice job!

hi ciril!
very nice concept on this one!
and i like that dirty collage style!

but i think that the first and the second piece in the 3rd row are too similar!
and if you want the kid to end like the size on the last pic, you should do this step by step...the kid has almost the same size at 8 of those 9 pics, and on the last the kid is way smaller!? hope you understand what i mean :)

and yeah, erwitt´s photographs are asskicking...i especially love the one with the child in the car with the broken window in front of the eye ;)

I think you were successful in telling a story of a child playing outside, but the center one really looks more like a cammel than a kid, causing a little jolt in the story where I had to figure out if it was a cammel or child or something else.
:iconrettaw:
I really like the first two rows (especially the jump kick has so much energy I almost have to go start a fight with my little brother ;) but the first two in last row clashes with the rest of the pictures with their lack of energy. It feels like one of those games when you have to point out wich ones doesn't belong, but way too easy.
I can see what you wanted to tell with them, but they are just to static compared with the rest. The last one on that row however perfectly portrays the feeling of going home after spending the day running around like crazy in the forest trough its contrast with all the energy above it.
I don't know exactly what I would put instead of the two pictures of the person just standing, but something with more energy at least, or maybe taking away some of the energy above them.
As a story I think it's incomplete, it's got an middle and an end, but no clear beginning.

Also, top row in the middle, I would switch that one with the one below, it feels more like it belongs in the center than the one that is there right now.

All in all great work tho, there really is a positive energetic feel to this pice, makes you want to be a small kid on a sugar rush :)
