Wow! this gymnast has great form. It's cute how she is sticking out her toungue. It's wierd though her legs look almost like plastic. I like the composition here.

nice subject but, given the advanced editing of this challenge, could you have done any improvements to this? for instance, the small spot on her right arm appears to be a tear in the fabric of her outfit & is very distracting (but a very simple fix...)

also, there is a large amount of purple fringing around the chrome fittings, and the focus is sharper on the background than on the subject

good, emotive theme - just needs attention to detail
