You asked us how this image makes us FEEL, and I can't quite figure it out. Balloons and clowns are supposed to be a happy thing, her "smile" is supposed to be happy. There is nothing threatening in the image, yet it all looks fake and utterly disconcerting.

It isn't scary enough for horror, it certainly isn't friendly enough for party - what DO you have in mind for it?

David, I can't believe you used this photo in a challenge!
You posted this (and several others very similar ones) in a forum thread and asked for help. Plenty of people helped with it in several different ways, including post processing. You must have had oodles of views.


After that much discussion and help, I am disgusted that you still used this photo in a challenge, I find that very, very wrong.

Luckily for you I won't be voting on this challenge.

Nathaniel, you had some very useful feedback in those comments.

It is very much your own loss that you only choose to get upset, instead of stopping to think about how those comments might help you improve.

I love these 3D photos, but even more so when the subject is this impressive. Well done, they are working very well. This one is my favorite of the series.

This is a good reminder that there can be beauty - or at least something interesting - in even the most mundane things.

I'm not often fond of borders, but I really like this one.
It enhances the feel/mood of the photo.

Nice shot and nice pp'ing.

Very nicely done. I like the subject matter, the composition and the natural lighting. The shallow DOF rescues what would have been a TOO busy background. 8

My favorite for this challenge. I love almost everything about it: the subject, the composition, and most of all the wonderful natural light.

The only thing I don't like is seeing a tiny little bit of wood on the very left edge, not enough to figure out what it is, and that is bothering me. I'd prefer to either see it properly, or not at all. 9

I just grew a couple of inches taller and have a grin from ear to ear. That is quite the praise coming from a photoshop guru like you!

Thank you ever so kindly, Ken :-)

Highway robbery! I gave you a 9, this deserves so much better than a 5.9.

The only thing I didn't like was your position in the frame - neither center nor thirds. The rest is super, fun and ever so attractive!
