Another "outside-my-comfort-zone" Challenge entry. It was raining really hard and this mother was sacrificing getting wet for her daughter.
White Rain... hope the future's gonna be brighter for them.
(I am not expecting this to do well...maybe mid 5s, but I am challenging myself to create something new. Anyway, I will be back to my "territory" soon but in the meantime, I am having fun with all these twists and turns in my journey.)

The philistines have proven me wrong about your top ten finish! Extremely underrated. I'm disappointed you didn't get a top ten with this, you certainly deserved it IMO.
This was a unique style. The white background and the colorful umbrella worked very well to give this photo zip. I didn't like the really strong motion of the people, though. I know it was a creative technique but without seeing it with less blur on the people, I can't say if this photo works totally as it stands.
I'm a fan of high key shots but this might be a little too much IMHO. The implied movement is great and I like how there's a sense of urgency in the image. Like the girl being late for class or something. Is this yours Manny?
aznym, or someone who is trying to produce an aznym effect. subject feels more asian though. nice processing, and a brave attempt. i hope you'd think 8 is allright.
Holy cow I love that purple! I wonder how many comments about "over exposure" you will get {{{sigh}}}...this is great just the way it is...the blur is fantastic...I just really like this....and that purple...totally electric.
