"I look so big!" This was an impromptu idea, sparked by the intrigue of a child's real moment. Thank goodness she has been raised in front of her mother's digicam, and is a patient model.

Fun photo. I wish the colors were a little bit less orange/yellow (specifically the background). I know this would be an easy process in Photoshop -- but I don't know what image editing program you're using.
Clever, good surprise and interest, but ......As a "people" shot, this leaves lots to be desired. The focus, lighting, and even the water droplets on the faucet are great touches, but I have such a hard time giving high scores to partial people shots like this one. My interpretation of PEOPLE includes more than just enough features to be able to figure out that it is a person. You have a great idea here that is very well done. Clever ideas get good scores, but meeting the challenge completely gets TOP scores. O.K? Photo 10 Creativity 10 People 5 (most other "partial" people like this got much, much lower scores) total 6 (weighted heavily on challange issue)
It's not the pic of the faucet that caused me to give this one a "10." It's that goofy little face in the forefront reflection. Whether it's the actual look of surprise or "awe" in the face or just the distortion from the reflection off the faucet, it worked. Creative and well done.
Is your bathroom really this shiny and clean?! Wow! It's awesome how you were able to light this so that even the eye color is apparent. Very well done!
