hehe I love that song

Seems a little dark to me, but great capture and beautiful little girl. I'd like to see the colors brightened a little more.

I really like the composition, but to me it's a little too soft. A touch sharper would do wonders :)

Wow! Hard to believe another football season is approaching.

Compositionally, this shot feels a little too "skinny" for me. While I think the vertical crop works well to isolate and emphasize the player, and what looks to be a "jump," it feels choppy and leaves me thinking that I am missing something that is just outside of the frame. Also, it gives the feeling that he is falling out of the frame very quickly. If it had been possible, I think having more space in front of him would have made the picture feel a bit more stable and "complete."

Technically, the colors are okay, if a bit *drab* (That is not exactly the right word I want, because I don't think you need anymore saturation), and it appears flat to me. Would a touch more contrast help this? You've caught the motion blur well, and I fully suspect that some may have voted it down because it was all blurry.

Overall, you have an excellent subject and met the challenge well. From my experience with dpc, I would strongly suspect that your score "suffered" because there was nothing in the picture that was "in focus" and therefore, there was nothing for the eye to "rest" on.

this is very nice. I like the up-close view because it allows me to see all the fine details. I really like the choice of background- it works well with the brightness of the white part of the flower.

probably one of the most photographed... but you got it in a way that you don't see nearly as much.

Cool parents! I know they aren't all dressed up to support Canada in the world cup, and hockey's over (i think), so what's the occasion?
