Thank you for all the wonderful comments, and constructive criticism. I learn a bit everyday by entering challenges, and that only makes me look a little further into my efforts! Thanks to Gracie girl too! I would use her for every contest, but that'd give me away! My best to you all!
Haha! I thought is was you! My favorite of the challenge. Once again, you floor me with something that *should* be hum-drum cliche by now, but in your hands remains fresh and fascinating.
Well, I finally found my own favorite for this challenge! Very nice work. Effective composition and juxtaposition between innocence and the trapped feeling from the ropes. The eye color adds to the feel of innocence, too. Marvelous work! 10
I think this is well taken and the selective desat is nice. The pose is a bit strange to me. The rope doesn't convey anything to me about innocence. Maybe I am just missing it. Good photo.
Marvelous photograph of the child's eyes. So blue, so natural looking. Like the duotone (?) tint used, it really contributes to "soft" feeling of the photograph, while being in sharp focus. Excellent lighting. A number 10!
