Hello Vaez,

Not number 1 because of motion blur (apart from the hands) or camera shaking.
Possibly number 2 if it is cropped to make the boy larger in the frame.
Not number 3 because of motion blur or camera shaking.
I like the formal number 4. What is the occasion or event?

[Antonio Correia]

To choose one's photos is always kind of difficult.
I would discard completely number one for the reason stated by Ted and choose the other 3 which are all good and different.
Is the young boy on a carpet in the water ? Perhaps a bit more light in his face...

[Geoff F]

Yes, I agree with Antonio.

#3 is potentially a good photograph but there is over exposure on the fingers and nose. Could you tone down or clone over the problem areas?

#4 is OK although the background lights are a bit distracting; not really a serious issue though.

[Rufus]

I like number 4 the best. It has good depth of field, strong contrast of colours in the main subjects.

However, I would try to clone out the lights at face level and top centre of the image and reduce the intensity of the white sock to make it even better.

[xpatUSA]

Yes, I agree with Antonio.

#3 is potentially a good photograph but there is over exposure on the fingers and nose.

But if you view in the Lytebox and go to 100% view, Antonio and Geoff, her left eye is blurred and many individual hairs are doubled indicating motion blur. I suppose that downsizing might fix that to an extent, but I'm a pixel-peeper myself.

First, I thank my dear friends
Thank you for your explanations and assistance
I'd rather give an explanation
All photos without editing
Unfortunately I forgot to resize

Celebration of retired teachers
A retired student had just been invited by an old teacher
He had to kiss the teacher's hand for respect
The old professor did not let go of his senses and wept for the love of all the students

For the motion blur and referring to number 1, the choice of f/4.5 is good but a faster shutter speed than 1/100 would have helped. Perhaps choose 400 ISO instead of 100. Also hold the camera firmly and use image stabilization if your camera or lens has it ...

what meenLytebox?

Lytebox is the bigger image that appears when you click on someone's posted image. Then when you click on the rectangle that has an arrow pointing up, you then get an image at 100% pixel view (100% zoom).

thanks for answer
could you see
New pictures of baby girl?
I just sent you

[Shadowman]

Agree with the others on their points and would add that image #1 has some unfortunate cropping although only one adds to the capture (the cane) while the others (figure upper right, elbow, and plastic package) don't. 2 and 3 are fun captures and only you can provide the significance that they mean to you. #4 is the strongest of the group even with the orientation, although I might tone down or get rid of the points of light in the background.

[Rufus]

Of the second set of three images, the first does not appear.

I prefer the second as the child is looking at the camera.

Of the four, Vaez, I like No 1, because of the emotion portrayed. However, it is utterly spoilt because of the inclusion of the package in his hand. I really like No 3, which hopefully can be corrected. I do notice, that almost certainly because of your understanding of English, that you call a lady a "bitch". Please be aware that is very offensive, so please try not to include the term. Thanks for sharing.
