Butter wouldn't melt until I read your comments lol. A great capture proving that blowing out areas of an image can enhance the overall feel of it. So close to a ribbon and wonder if she were a little less cental or had a tear this would have ribboned Marac (am not suggesting you smack children btw).

But Gary.... there's an HDR challenge next!!!! LMAO

This is stunning and beautiful! I love the simple innocent moment you captured. The flowers in her hair are so pretty and the lighting is awesome!

Expert portrait. Exquisite light.

I can't help but be a little troubled by some of the blown highlights on her right side. It's a very minor quibble though and hardly enough to take anything from the strong feeling of innocence that you've captured.

isn't she precious.. I love the pose... the lighting is perfect.. The highlights in her curly hair really drew me in.. 10 for me

Oh My GAWD!! How incredibly beautiful. Haunting. The lighting and her hand. My only nit is that tiny bit of blur/bokeh behind her wrist. WOW - my fav so far.

To begin, your model is adorable ... this is a perfect example of where the pure whites enhance the image rather than making you think something is "blown" in the photograph...... the b/g is perfect, the image just glows ... her expression is ambiguous which I like.. a 9 from me
