I don't know why I thought this was yours but the whole time I was readying your threads I was getting a feel for you and what kind of pictures you take. I had a really good feeling this was yours..
So close to the top 10 but still a fantastic shot. Very easy yet very creative.
Haven't I seen a very similar photo here before? But all the same this is very well done and fits the challenge very well, despite being a spiral rather than a circle. The lighting on the background works very well, providing a much more interesting image than if you'd used a plain background.
A very nice shot. Pleasant tones and lighting. Only quirk is the lollipop isn't sharp all the way around. The left side looks like it was spot blurred and so does her right shoulder. The background blur does look nice but has spilled onto the suject in more places than one.
stuck in two minds about this. there is much i love; the pose, the whole concept, the gorgeous redness of the dress against the greys, the very striking playful colours of the lolly. what i'm not too keen on is the heavy nature of the dodging and burning - the contrast between light and dark round the sweet (i.e. that white halo) gives the appearance of being a bit too processed for me. also, personal taste, i think it might be more effective a step or two further back with the subject filling a bit less of the frame... but it's still immensely likeable, and is certainly a creative take on the challenge.
My First Weighted Scoring System ™; composition + technical 2.5/3, challenge 1/1, post processing results 1.5/2, ooooh factor 3/3, originality 1/1 = 9
Very interesting composition.. I think the light balance is a little off(esp. on the hands) after the editng and maybe too much blurring.. BUT still an amazing shot and I would want it to be at least in the top ten.. good luck!
