Dang... lovely colors! Beautiful portrait. Probably would have scored much higher in the challenge it was in, if there were visible rain drops or an umbrella or something. But dang! Simply beautiful.
I wish they had such cute rain boots when I was a kid!
I notice a blue cast to the photo overall and expecially on her face. It makes her look cold. Usually, placing the subject off center adds more interest to a picture, but I'm not so sure about that in the case.
Very nice. I like her outfit...simple, classic, evocative of childhood. I like the color contrast of the green boots with the dark ground and her violet dress. I'm wondering if this could have been warmed up a bit though. It appears very blue. Of course, that can help to create the mood but I feel like her skin tone could be warmed up a tad. Just a tad. This shows thoughtfulness in composition--very simple background, interesting placement of the child in a vertical frame. I kind of wish she were looking into the camera---her eyes are at perfect placement in the center of the upper third of the frame that it seems like when we look there we should meet her gaze. I would have likely given this a 9 or 10 if she were meeting the viewer's eye.
Cute and certainly shows rainy conditions. The color temp may be a tad cool (blue), a little slide upward would make the white of her dress whiter. Best of luck to you in the challenge.
Gorgeous portrait. The subdued colour and light adds so much to this. Wish those cute gumboots were more in focus, but nonetheless, the image is a treasure :)
