ooh this is fun! I wonder what it would look like with a star filter. I have one, but I haven't really played with it. Would it work on glittery ornaments?

I really like the shot. Great mix of light and dark. I love the reflection of the tree on the sidewalk. The person is a wonderful addition, and a great touch. I would have preferred the person either to the left or the right a bit more and not so centered, though it is very difficult to time things perfectly. It's not a big deal, just a very small suggestion.

One other very small suggestion: did you sharpen after resize? I pulled the image into photoshop and did a smart sharpen with settings of 109 & .5, and it brings out the details of the tree beautifully. It looks a little muddy in the shot as it stands. I don't particularly like it on the rest of the shot, so I'd mask that out for the sharpening round.

Just a couple of thoughts. I think it's a great photo, and a great find. Very nicely done!

So... I'm an avid user of your scores plug-in, but I had a suggestion, so I looked at the preferences to see if it was already there and implemented. Then I saw that it was fav-ware--I didn't realize that!

This one was easy to fav -- it's such a great photo and it's so intriguing! Nicely done!

Even though it could use a little work, I wanted to let you know that I gave it a 7, as is. It was a wonderful capture of a very special moment. Sometimes it's not about perfection, imo. Sometimes it's about life -- and this one shone through. :)

I wish the hand wasn't there -- the rest of the shot is wonderful, but I do think the hand detracts from it.

Seriously underrated. And no comments? Ridiculous! It got a 7 from me, and I like it even better now!

There's just something so striking about this one -- I loved it during the challenge, and it still makes quite an impression.

It definitely needs a bluebird. :D
