Good Job Babe you first entry and first time using a digital camera. I've entered 31 challenges and the best I was able to do was 9th and I sposed to be the photographer. Go figure.
Thank you everyone for all the Great votes and comments!! My Daughter was a perfect model for this and I guess my love of her and things Fantasy really shone through in this photo! Not bad for my first challenge or my first time using a digital cam.
This will have a ribbon, this is a wonderful effect! The only thing that bothers me is that she is naked. She is too old for a cute naked baby picture and way too young to be naked.
At first look I was not too happy with this image. Something about the child disturbed me...the appearance of nakedness perhaps. On second look I warmed to it a bit as i absorded your concept. On third look I appreciated it a lot more. Very nice work. Nice job - 9.
I have to wonder about the comments you're getting for this lovely, serene shot. Processing is a little heavy, but the challenge almost called for it. The girl looks just a little bit older than traditional "cute nude" shots allow, although I care not about such things.. but DPC is well known for witchhunting this particular subject. Kudos for the conviction to stick with it, as it *is* a very touching portrait. What I particularily like is the almost metallic sheen of her skin. Usually over-smoothed looks like this are tacky or so fake as to be off-putting.. but like I said, in this particular challenge it works.
Good luck.. my highest score, as I'm a sucker for a cute face (as my portfolio will show).
I'm guessing the 'glow' on the skin is to supplement the otherwordly radiance of angels. I'm personally not a fan of the effect. I also feel the foreground leaves near her elbow are a little distracting.
