 Wanted to get something with my daughter's long hair. Not entirely satisfied with this.

She was standing up, leaning over, and letting her hair fall. I rotated it 90 degrees.

Editing was a lot of lightening, some noise reduction, and some perspective correction to get the lines behind her horizontal. Also some color shifting and selective desat (the wall is actually light green).

The facial expression makes the whole shot. Good job.

It looks like she is being blown backward! Very cool, once again.

Awesome interpretation of "Portrait in Landscape Orientation" and unique use of the whole frame. Emotion is captured in her eyes.

I am so interested, what in the world is she doing? To me she looks in pain, or scared not sure which.
