The softness and colours enhances her beauty and cuteness. A lovely example of contre-jour.

This is the best of the dirty face images, simply because the dirt covers her whole face and her look is intense. Well done.

Yup, this was a bummer dq Jeff! However, I guess since many voters obviously thought your daughter was strong enough to hold the trolley up then yes, you tricked them. ok, so a wire may have better suited the challenge but surely the same voters would be tricked again?

There was an entry not so long ago where an entire ship was poorly (imho) removed from a shot but remember it was ok as when they removed it the sea/sky was replaced and the ship definitely would have distracted my view of the image.

Still it's a great shot Jeff :)

After what we have seen in Advanced editing and all the talk about pushing beyond expert, this is a silly and totally unnecessary DQ. Badly written as well, that last sentence makes no sense. Not sure what exactly bothered the SC.

Does the "typical viewer" really suffer so much from the removed strap and the flash behind the jar? Unbelievable!
