Wow! this gymnast has great form. It's cute how she is sticking out her toungue. It's wierd though her legs look almost like plastic. I like the composition here.

nice subject but, given the advanced editing of this challenge, could you have done any improvements to this? for instance, the small spot on her right arm appears to be a tear in the fabric of her outfit & is very distracting (but a very simple fix...)

also, there is a large amount of purple fringing around the chrome fittings, and the focus is sharper on the background than on the subject

good, emotive theme - just needs attention to detail

What an elegant photo! ... You have done your grandmother proud and have been able to share her spirit, through this image, to the rest of us. You have honoured her here, no doubt.

i know what you're after, but think it still needs some practice. you need to get your shutter down to at least 1/60 or slower to make this work.
