A different angle without looking painful or contrived. Wish her smile was a bit bigger / more spontaneous looking. Overall, a very nice, complimentary capture.

Congratulations! Great image. Using a car as the reflective surface? Who'd have thunk?

Congratulations on the red. Great picture - just the right tonal shades, and contrast.

One Ring To Rule Them All

Comment:
See? I told you it was a great picture. Considering that it is now blue, are you sure you know where that ring came from? Or does it have a will of its own to dominate all others? Kind-a scary if you think about it...

Great picture. I'd very much like to visit England (some folks with the same last name were landed gentry in Cornwall & Devon - have no idea how or if they are related to our family in the U.S. - furthest back here is early 1700's).

Whatever the date, whenever the time, challenge or no, this is a great shot! Congratulations on a job well done.
Me thinks it should be obvious that the picture had to be taken within the challenge date range - the image date is not before the challenge, and the image had to exist in order to be included in the voting. What a bummer!

Have to disagree with you. The 1x picture was not nearly as good as yours. You can see the sticky tape on the mirror, and I like the blue in yours rather than the all-yellow of theirs.

Love to Dance

Thanks for the comments. In retrospect, this probably would have done much better if I'd darkened the curtains to black.
This was a shot of a live performance, and was one of the back row dancers in a group of about a dozen. The River Dance Company is dedicated in using dance in Christian worship, so think "praising God" as a context for the picture.
I loved the expression on her face.
