I see a long life and one child ;) The halo is distracting for me. Often when I use a strong gausian blur on a background, I go around the outer edge of the subject with the clone tool.

Ten Tiny Toes

So sweet. It deserved a much higher score, IMO. I love the gentle tones of the B&W and the soft curves of the blanket.

Nice armpit. ;) It is amazing how much it looks like a lower torso. Very interesting, nice curves and lighting.

This is so interesting. As with most pixilated art (newspaper images, pointillism, etc.), it's easier to see the picture in a smaller format. The face is quite clear in the thumbnail, and very obscure in the larger version. It's a wonderful shot. Congratulations on the high score and placement. I'm glad people appreciated it.

Love this joy and innocence, and the feeling of spirituality.

Beautiful photo, Eve. I love the colors and the focus. I amazed that you achieved that lovely shallow DOF with the kit lens.

Cool shot -- a still life and landscape all in one. I like the cool colors outside and the warm colors inside. The syrup looks delicious.

Lovely lighting. Your sister-in-law is very beautiful and you really did right by her and your niece. I'd like the photo even better if the background was less distinct.

Adorable child, and a beautiful photo. From the two photos, it looks like she has her fingers in her mouth much of the time. So this would be a particularly good portrait, with fingers in mouth, but mouth still visible. It's amazing how fast she has grown in just a few months.

OMG, congratulations!!! Great photo. Who knew what would fit this challenge? I'm very happy for you. I think the title was the icing on the cake.
