***Just thought I would add that the candles were actually lit but due to the lighting they didn't show up. Normally I would try to adjust the settings but with a tired model who was very scared of getting burnt by the candls I left it as it was.
By the way.....thanks Kita. You did well sweetie.***

I thought this photo would of done better than it did! Maybe the light is slightly harsh on the side of her face on my monitor but it's well done. It's a shame you couldn't see the flames. It would of highlighted it well and would of looked good in the reflection. Well done Judi!
I thought this challenge was without mirrors and as far as I can see she is sitting on one. Well I will of course give you the benefit of the doubt regarding that but I have a feeling this is getting a lot of "off topic" comments. Anyway, like this shot but still there is something missing. Also could use a wider tonal range, there are a couple of spots on the dress that are blown out.
The reflection is well done but I am disturbed by the provocative pose of the child with her shoulder exposed/sleeve ripped off? This may not have been the intention but this is how I read it.
Nice image with a pretty model (daughter?). I find it interesting how her expression can seem slightly different, just due to the different angles. I think I would have liked this better without the candles (especially since you can't see the flames).
