A study of 6 ... but there is only 4 Tongue
The catch lights in the 1st and last pics are really good.
In the 1st pic I would look at cloning out that white coat or whatever it is on the left and the bottle or ornament on the bottom right. Or you could try cropping to portrait to get rid of the distractions.
In the 2nd and 3rd I am finding the window + frame distracting.

Subject is great, in focus, background is nicely OOF, overall a great concept I think !

Time is like a freeway of infinite lanes, all leading from the past to the future. A driver in lane A may crash, while a driver in lane B survives, it follows that by changing lanes one may be able to predict the future.

Agree with Tim here but guessing that the title refers to age tho looks older

Thanks for your comments, def cropping on first pic looks better, for middle 2 was kinda hoping the face would be strong enough to counterbalance the distraction, but I suppose that is because I know the child!

Nicely captured Annash. I particularly like his eyes reflecting his michievous grin.

Surely the study is of 6 teeth? ( do I get a free set of steak knives for the correct answer?)

These are nice. I agree with Tim on the first just a little tidy up would fix that. As for the second I think just a slightly tighter crop to remove the curtain rail along with straightening up the window frame would do it for me. On the third I think just remove that piece of window frame that looks like it comes from his head. Nice tones and treatment otherwise.

He's just turned 6, so it was a study of the "difference" between 5 and 6, kind of, a rite of passage kind of thing.  I liked the contradiction with the six and only 4 pics also, just me being contrary.

Can't do the steak knives, but might manage the odd power ranger or noddy knife n fork if you're interested  Wink
