Simply a teriffic capture! I can almost hear the giddy exchange as I am typing. Great expressions, good exposure, and nicely cropped. Super job!

I'm pressed for time and don't have time to make comments this week, but I had to leave one for this image. This is one of the best examples I've seen in a long time of capturing emotion and interaction with a photograph. The black and white works great... I cant find anything to improve, other than the back of her hand being a little blown out, but that's Ok. I give it a 10 and I hope to see this image win the challenge!!

This is so playful and just by looking at the photo I hear the whispers and giggles in my head. I think it's a great depiction of sound!

What I really find attractive in this shot is the white building in the middle. Your focus and clarity on that are just awesome. The lines are crisp, and we get some really nice detail out of it.
However, the surroundings aren't really that nice. There is a dead branch in the lower left corner that I'm finding particularily annoying. It stands out there just screaming 'I'm ugly'.
The sky is good, and the reflection in the water is also ok. I don't like the way the lights look on the surrounding buildings though. The focus is sharp, but the lights are all fuzzy, which takes away from the sharpness in my opinion.
It's a nice night shot. You did a good job of getting lighting and focus to work for you on the building.
I think that maybe a different crop would have helped, or maybe just get in a bit closer on the building. I'm not finding the forground filler attractive much at all.
All the talk about meeting the challenge, I think this works just fine. Home isn't always your own house. There are some things that you see that just feel right, and you sigh and say "I'm home".
