This was a tough challenge. Many photos were taken but only one survived. This was the best of the bunch. I hope some of you like it. Any comments you have would be appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

I thought of that too, however my skills are still minimal. Lovely portrait. It wakes up such warm emotions. I like the colour scheme and composition. Very natural. Very beautiful.
I'm normally a huge proponent of good density but in this case it seems a bit overpowering...having nearly blown out whites and absolute blacks. Other than that this is a really sweet shot. I'd love to see it again with a little less contrast. I think it'd be a wonderful shot.
