Thank you, Nam, for identifying what was bothering me about this image. Yes, the veiny leg and foot are mine, and I didn't think to smooth it out to better match the feeling of the image.
This image started in the 4s at rollover. Delighted it was able to climb back over 6. Thanks everyone.

Quality image Johanna. To get the flare on the dress so perfect. The veins? I noticed it but not that it bothers me. I see a balance in the world where not everything (model) has to be 18 years old but I am sure it affected your score on the whole.
The shapes of the fabric remind me of wings - very graceful. Not so sure about the leg and foot - there's something about the harsher lighting, centered position and pronounced veins that contradict the mood of airiness and silence in the rest of the image and makes it not quite right for the challenge. Still a nice score from me. Voted earlier.
