Nice portrait for an awful user name (not your fault, I know -- unless you are emofag). :-/

Kim, I think this is beautiful! It is very strong, graphics-wise. I'm not generally a fan of tinting, but I think it works well in this case (and also took care of the minor issue of the red rim around the bulb). The presence of the hand keeps adds humanity. No improvements to offer, none needed. If people are in their right minds this will score high. Sincerely, Larry

Equally beautiful to your ribbon-winning entry in Silky Smooth. Great technique!

One of the two flower shots that I'm giving a high score to. Your photo is clear, nicely composed, and it really fits the challenge.

A high vote from me. Flowers are the cliched item of the challenge, I'm afraid, but this soft white rose tops the bunch.

Silky everything: dress, skin, hair, backdrop. Your color palette and lighting are controlled and gorgeous. The odd angle of the arm holding the bottle is distressing, and your caption is poignant. Really emotive and a 10 from me.

Nice "switcheroo" on which element gets desaturated -- it works well with your subject.

Wow, very strange and eye catching. To nitpick, did you miss coloring under the left eyebrow?

Nice touch with the traffic light -- it balances the photo.
