EXCELLENT clarity. The DOF is spot on. The detail is so good that we can see the little stray hairs jutting out from their coat. Wonderful composition as well.

Beautiful mother and child. I see this on the cover of National Geographic. Lovely tones and their skin is so real. I love the genuine smile of the mother. Great lighting and focus.

I like the brightness of light. Nicely captured with all of the wing movement! The blue tones of the water with the hint of a red on their feet makes for nice color contrast. Well done.

Wow - I'm surprised at the low score for the challenge. I gave it an 8 without hesitation. I like the nice contrast of the white with the blue and black. It certainly has a shapely theme!!

Very nice. I like how the silhouetee still has a touch of detail and is'nt completely black.

Very cool. I like that her eye whites really duplicate the color of the shirt and it makes your eye go back and forth. Wow - film!!!

Wonderful detail of the guy's face. The rich saturation of the yellow jackets really draws your eye to the thumbnail. Great candid shot!

Oh, this one is wonderful too. I bet it was hard to pick. This has a repeat of the edge of her scarf - like a similar smaller shape as one of the wings. Wow - you are amazing to have even thought of this. I hope she had as much fun as we did looking at these wonderful images!!!

"If you had not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
And I patched up your broken wing
And hung around a while
Tried to keep your spirits up
While you were feelin' down
I knew someday that you would fly away
For love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground " Willie Nelson

ooooh ! This one is cool on a different level. Her tutu almost has the same rounded shape as the wings. Like the angel fell to the ground and her wings got stuck on the tree. This one is sad, whereas the winning one was more uplifting. I sure like this one though!!
