the expression is somehow too forced

maxanin, I went to your profile to see if you've ever filmed children.
I see you haven't. Otherwise, you wouldn't have written such nonsense. ))) You can coax the right expression out of an adult, but you can only catch it in a child.

polka-photo, too close-up to be caught point-blank from above - as if the child didn't see that you were photographing him from half a meter away

maxanin, of course she saw everything! :-)
But I don't shoot with the "look at the lady, smile, a bird will fly out" attitude—that could ruin the whole shoot.

I communicate with the children, connecting with their emotional level as much as possible. We were clearly playing something here, I just had the camera.

It's not pretentious (to me)... just childish foolishness.
I like it like this, I want it in the center here, the air conditioning on the left doesn't work. View crop
I liked it.

Irinny, thanks for your opinion! I completely agree with the cropping! The "air" on the left was left so the card could be printed—the proportions of the Minilab prints were preserved.
[ArtGapan], there are devils there, no less.
