I love the grain in this image. I would of liked to have seen a bit more sharpness around the eyes though. Maybe clone the little white spot on her lip too. Everything else is spot on! Well done!

the lovelyest shot in the challenge. if the vote disagrees they are wrong. OK ther is an annoying hot spot top center, but the rest of it has a mystical luminance that deserves recgnition.

I love the softness and shadows of the swan's feathers..lovely and fascinating image...almost has a sculptural quality.

7 - Wow. Whilst no expert on 'highlight control' re the Challenge, seems to me you have done very well to not 'blow' any surface, save for a few feathers top middle. Criticism; difficult, as I do like this unusual view/angle, but (and especially for the Challenge) would like to have seen more of a 'white background' (even though I know the swan itself is basically 'the background'). Just, perhaps some more 'space' somewhere, giving more perspective/depth/not sure. Of course with 'basic' little could be done about the 'fly'(?) on the back. Good and very unusual shot. Up to 7 from 6.
