Love the flare in these Sam. I can sense the joy and innocence on the little girl's face. Well done, I say. The black and white one on your blog is definitely a keeper as well; great capture.
Great series once again. I can't pick just one favourite so I'll pick a few. #2 (left), #3, #5 (left) and #6. Very inspirational work as always. Kurt said it best. Your work is "consistently awesome".
I do not like the flare pictures at all. They are washed out and have low contrast and I feel like putting on my sunglasses. I feel the flare and the blown out background detract significantly from these. I like the first picture the best by far. A nice blue sky with clouds would get rid of all that dead space that one's eye is drawn toward.
