I don't think that what she feels is a sin.

I don't usually rate photo's highly that are just of a kid, but this one is an exception. Her eyes are unbelievable and there is the unquestioning look of pride. Rated 8.

her dilated pupils show more to me than anything else in the picture...she most certainly is very proud!

I don't think this pride is a sin, but doggonnit, it is pride. The judges accept.

But not pride in the sinful sense, more joy.

Nice contrast with the idea of "sin", as this fine little person appears so innocent :-) Pride of this nature I think is great, not sinful. 5 nards656

Cute expression and very cute model... The background could have used a little more thought though... There seems to be a white (cup?) thing growing out of her left ear. A blank background (or even better, a soccer field) would have helped this shot tremndously... I almost wanted to give you a hard time about meeting the challenge since a child's pride in their accomplishments is not actually what is refereed to in the '7 deadly sins'... But then I realized (though I could be wrong) that it is your pride in her and not her pride that you are referring to here. While that could be debated as not a sin either, it certainly could be if misdirected... So I give you full points for on challenge + 1 extra for a unique, thoughtful way of expressing it. ~MyQyl~

By the way, tell her I said Congratulations!!!

A precious photo and if she won this trophy, she should be proud. I don't think that kind of pride is what is considered a deadly sin. And I definitely see nothing sinful implied or shown in this photo.
