Fabulous pic Ev, maybe not the right challenge choice? As it requires people to think out of the box ;-)
I definitely think this is one of your best!!!! You have nailed the rule of thirds in this one, and the leading line of the arms to the baby are superb. Oh great use of negative space as well.
This would be a nice photo in just the right challenge. Good composition. Not very purple, though. And highlights on child's sleeve are a little too washed out.
After scrolling through the other pictures, this doesn't say PURPLE...which is the whole point of this particular challenge. People may mark you down for that....the picture should be about the color purple...not just a cute baby with a purpleish grey tint.
