It will be interesting to see how many people think this doesn't fit the challenge. This is the image I had as soon as I saw the challenge title, so I will disagree with anyone who says it doesn't fit.

I think I get what you were going for here, and this image stands out as a definite example of exposing hidden emotions and revealing intentions! The openness of it makes it feel like something new is being said at this moment by this subject, and we get to witness it. Very nice!
lol her expression and pose is wonderful-delightful. Stark looking area with great composition and splash of red. I like this shot...very appealing to view.
Good Points: funny subject, nice and clean
Bad Points:hand is too high, confusing to the eye. Burnt out sky. don't like the b&w/color mix quite amature
Score:3
Exposing your heart! How sweet! The idea is great but I think it would have been better with a heart on the sleeve concept. The smile on the face says it all, the shot is a bit busy with all the grass and such and the hand almost gets lost on the horizon. Starting with a 5, will be back.
