Description

Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden

The child in the photo is my youngest son.

open to the glories of the stars, the beauty of the flowers,
and the mystery of life. "

This is a really sweet picture. I like the softness of the child's face against the background and how the hair is softly in focus.

I do think, however, that the colours in the background are a little too saturated. The grass doesn't really look a natural green... the flowers you can kind of get away with though.

I do like the colouring effect you have chosen and I think it works well. It's also an interesting and original angle. I like how the child is in focus and the flowers are blurred and it works pretty well.

Good job!
