 Hi guys! Taylor again. I shot for this challenge all week and hated all of my shots - or just didn't love them. Then I thought to shoot someone in the pool, but don't have a pool and there was no someone nearby who could be used... so I had to wait. Luckily when Tay got home she didn't mind going with me to the neighbors to do pictures at their freezing cold pool (they weren't home :P ) We got the shots I wanted in about 20 minutes flat. Thanks Tay. oh, and thanks, Gary Fong :P

This is a very well executed shot that fits the challenge well. It should have finished much higher. Colorful with great depth of field.

I'm sorry, but this is a strange title for a little girl.. How old is she anyway? I would guess maybe 12 or 13. But with the painted nails, I am unsure. Still this creeps me out, considering what is going on in the world nowadays...maybe should be renamed??

nice portrait...a bit young to be labelled 'exotic' don't you think?

instead of taking from front, you should have moved on side to separate body portion submerged in water.

The effect of the light in the water adds to this impressive portrait. Definitely fits the challenge.
