I like the sepia one, but I love the depth this one has... although the contrast almost seems a little too high here. Beautiful shot though!

Stunning post-editing. My guess is that it will ribbon, or at least be in the top ten!

Cool... I'm not sure if I like the fact that two whole thirds of the photo is out of focus, I might have cropped a little more of the top. But I really like the point of view you used! The details on the face are really neat. Good shot!

Interesting! I like the lighting, and you have some very nice shallow depth of field.

Absolutely lovely! Beautiful... I love the colors - the coppery curls against the green. Your composition is wonderful, and the shallow DOF really adds to this picture. I love it! The only thing I might suggest is brightening it up a tad - there is nothing really white in this picture, which would help balance things a bit... so perhaps by adjusting the cuves in Photoshop you could get the highlights white. But I'm just being picky! A very sweet shot!

Cool idea! Not sure I like the red background very much, and it almost looks like the saturation is too high... but an interesting, unique shot!

haha! A hilarious expression! The lighitng is very nice here, but it looks a little grainy. Maybe lowering the ISO would help that a little bit. Cute shot!
