They're ok, but I wouldn't print them out

I agree with John Beardsworth here:

I've never been overwhelmed by the National Portrait Gallery's annual Photographic Portrait Prize but this year's shortlist truly limbo dances under my ankle high expectations.

In other news I recently gave a print away as a gift to a good friend of mine. It was of her and her little boy in a very tender embrace. It made her cry. She didn't say why. I could have asked but I didn't want to take the risk.
