Hm...I prefer your moodier shots. 'Happy' and 'heida' next to each other don't seem get along to well. Cute girl though. Congrats on the top 10 finish.

Stunning, enlightening shot, Heida. I didn't vote on this one; didn't like enough of them. But this is superb.

when I think of a happy picture like this, I think of more vibrant colours... a little too faded but love how the eyes stand out

Beautiful face and freckles but they seem to be washed out a bit.

This is a great portrait. You captured a wonderful expression. Nice lighting, and the desat really works. The hair line seems a little oversharp though, but nothing serious. Reminds me of the girl from "Periwinkle" from the Fairy Tales Challenge.

Great portrait, wonderful expression in the eyes. Lack of detail below the head doesn't quite work for me though, as well as the shallow dof especially around the mouth.

Ouch, a stunning photo. The uncertain jaw line and some sort of post processing effect robs it of the knockout punch. 8.
