A muslin doll sitting on and in front of paper with the word "April" printed on it. Taken in my kitchen with just the stove light.

WOW. This will either win hands down or the voters will consider it a cheat and vote low... This looks more like a calendar image than any other entry.. but it looks like an illustration and not a photo.. Hmmm... wouldn't like to say how this will do... tell you what, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt... 10
Good job! I like the whole idea although it may look just a little diffuse on my monitor. I know that was what you were going for but it is almost hard to make out here. Just a wee bit less diffuse would have done wonders for me.
The pastel effect is very April. In keeping with the rules on text in a picture, I won't let it affect my score. I hope no one puts it in for a DQ - it's a very nice shot.
Hmmmm. I had to really focus my eyes to see this shot. Especially because the previous one was really bright!! I think this may have been a really great photograph, but it has been processed to the point of becoming a painting or digital "art".
This is absolutely wonderful! I'm adding it to my favorites so I can try doing this. I'm curious about the words in the background, but I trust you found a way to do it in the rules. - 10
(ok, just went to the next photo, and things are seeming dull after this!)
