Comment by StevePax:
Lighting, perfect. Background, perfect. (I really like how it grades to a slightly darker tone at the top!) Composition: actually, I think there are a few things to be done about the positioning of the subject in the frame, but I can't quite place my finger on what it is. Maybe I'd like to see the whole blue ramikin. Idea: perhaps the best of the challenge. Overall, this is a 10 from me.

HOT. natural. Only thing I would have done differently is use my telephoto lens t' give her some zoom, and take a macro of the view.

Comment by ChipsDitchman:
Very cool...kinda spooky even. Actually the more I look at it the more it creeps me out, but in a good way. Shadow looks alive. Only improvement maybe would have been to try to get the fingertips touching so the shadow one was less blocked off. Great shot though.

Wonderful image, this is my wife's favourite one :-) It's way up there on the top of my list too. This kind of reminds me of the Michelangelo ceiling fresco in the Sisteen Chapel.
