I'm pretty sure these were still operational though I didn't actually give them a go.
This actually wasn't my top choice, I did a bunch of shots for this challenge but after showing a few friends, this was the overwhelming favorite, so I trusted the judgement of the masses over my own for once. ;)
Officially knocked my first ribbon off of my profile page which is now exclusively self portraits! Ha! I need to get models more.

Thanks for the kinda comments! I've been out of DP challenge for a little bit now. Though of course I was hoping to ribbon, 2 top 5 entries aren't bad for my return. :)
I like the soft colors and the model did an excellent job for you. There's so much to look at in this image, that at first glance I didn't appreciate it as much as I do looking at it again. Her left foot is soft in focus, so you probably should have shot a bit faster, but I really like this image with the papers blowing in the back ground, looks like she just bought groceries....very nice!
I'm 36 images into the voting, and this is the first image I have come across that is true to Hayashi's style. Very nicely done, top of the vote for me.
