 A quick entry. Just cropped, sharpened and adjusted levels. Desaturated to give that old world feel. Noise Ninja to slightly smoothe things out.


PREDICTION: Looks like there will be a thousand entries in this challenge...6.2XXX???

POST: OK, not my best entry. I should have listened to my daughter and not entered this. It was a candid shot at a church camp. The headband in question was what the green team was wearing. Oh well, you live and learn...

Please come and take photos of my daughters! This photo is very sweet. The mom isn't in the ideal position, but the lighting in the little girl's eyes and her dreamy expression truly make this shot lovely.

The parents head is more distracting the more I look at it...

The green thing on the persons head on the upper right is distracting. Cute model

What an angel! Those eyes are mesmerizing and I love the slight hint of a smile - purely content.

The portrait of the little girl is well done despite the arm movement. However the face poking in at the top right is very distracting.
