The She We Don't See

'The She We Don't See' - that's because there's a towel in the way . . oh wait - I see what you mean . . :- )

A good idea but there are too many strong verticals in here which detract from the picture, and there is a distracting tension between the whiteness of the basin drawing the eye away from the model, along with the large dark area diagonally opposite it.

Ideally you would have moved her along the mirror a little to get ris of the dark area, and hung a backdrop behind her to lose the distracting reflections in the mirror. Perhaps also gone for a towel with a punchier colour ?

It's a good idea, and a fits the challenge well, but for me, needs more work on the technicals. Good luck in the challenge.

Aah - the forgotten art of Peruvian Nose Wrestling :- )

Looks to me like she is winning so far.

Nice shot.

I quite like this - but the crop near her head is too close, and I'm undecided about the grain.

This has a nice feeling of intimacy to it - although at that age he was more likely trying to gross her out :- )

OMG - we forgot the baby on the bus.

what a wonderfully disorganised group - this could almost be a composite where you had randomly placed a string of different characters in the shot . . wait till his wife see's this :- )

nice shot, crop, and great DoF.

Only nitpick is that the bridge (?) in the background pulls the eye away from the young couple, and on my monitor it blends into the back of his shirt providing a further distraction. If this wasn't a 'Basic Editing' challenge you could have that fixed in two moments - but hey

That aside a nice shot.

Lovely shot.

There is much to like here, the diagonal formed by the rock in the foreground, the gentle colour range (nothing loud or distracting) the two sub-groups within the overall group (everyone ahs someone to love), and the baby sitting safe and protected between the adults.

Lovely shot conveying 'Intimacy' beautifully.

Should do very well.

got it?

'Got it' ?

Got what ? I think I may have lost it years ago to be honest . .

Nice portrait and crop.

Nice capture, and dont' they look proud of their nest :- )

My only suggestion would have been to bump the saturation on this shot - the birds have such a wonderful deep metallic sheen to thier colours.
