Challenge met. Not exactly difficult to find her, but met nonetheless. I like this photo a lot. I like the shape created by those two trees, and the texture and colors of them. Putting a face in the gap between the trees is just really clever and works well in the photo even outside of the challenge. The lighting on the right side of the photo is a little brighter than perfect, but nothing too distracting. I was re-reading some of the forum discussions on dodging and burning, this might be a good pic to try it on. Great entry :)
Is it my imagination or do I also see Waldo in the top right corner looking through a small hole? If I do see him, that is a better job of hiding Waldo than the obvious one. And to me it was not to be that obvious. This is a wonderful photo with great texture to the tree bark, just not what was really to be the challenge. But that's just my opinion. Otherwise this is a wonderful photo.
Awesome picture. The person, of course, is not well hidden at all, but the wonderful texture of the trees make up for it. This is worthy of a frame even if it doesnt do well in this particular challenge. Great job!
