Comment by The Eskimo:
This is truly a beautiful picture. The warm lighting on the boat sets it off nicely. The picture seems framed with the blue sky at top matching the blue water at the bottom.

Comment by ubique:
Well, I love the simple elegance of the composition. It's harmonious and balanced, in an asymmetrical kind of way. I also don't mind that the image is so soft; I think that's appropriate to the character of the scene (and of course to this challenge). I'm afraid I don't like the hand ... it seems pointless to me and robs the scene of some of its charm. I suppose you were concerned that without a blindingly obvious time exposure gimmick, DPC commentators would attack you for "not meeting challenge". Alas, you're probably right. 6

Comment by David Ey:
well, a bit of a stretch to meet the challenge but it is SUCH a good pic of a very pretty little girl I score it a nine anyway which groups it in my top 15 in this challenge. great framing, focus, and lighting and a super model. Good luck

This is a GREAT portrait! One of those few pics where I say, "Don't know if it really meets the challenge. Don't care!"

The photo looks sightly OoF and very noisey. I'm not quite sure I understand the title vs. the photo and the hand but I do love the lawn furniture in the bedroom. I think that adds a certain touch to an otherwise elegant photo. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <5>
