I am pretty lucky to have 2 lovely girls to pose for me..without them I wouldn't have got this I am sure. They do get tired of me shooting pictures of them, but they love to see the outcome. She will be please this shot won! I have a few more in this gallery of her and my other daughter. //www.pbase.com/sonifo/chandraya //www.pbase.com/sonifo/lilamae&page=3

Thanks to all of you!!! ((hug))

Kev, I used a process to lighten the middle and darken the edges slightly to make the young girl stand out. Didn't really do much else to the shot. I did crop it and probably wouldn't have changed a thing even after the comments. I like it just the way it is. I wanted the background to help tell the story. I do have a shot in the gallery that was messed with, but thought it would do to well.

Thanks to that special friend of mine who helped me choose this one. :-)) (hug)

Thanks for all the wonderful comments! You all rock!

Congrats Sonfio! As much as I hate losing I must admit that it feels much better being beaten by you than just any given DPC-e ;-) Great shot.

Here she goes again. This is very beautiful. Excellent colors and the mood is also very good. Not your typical high-key shot BUT definitely of the same quality.

I'm pretty much over the single sat, but this really works. Spot on clarity helps alot. I like the placement of the couple in the shot - like they are really going somewhere. Good composition. I think a simple black frame would serve you well here although the lack of one isn't a detriment. Thanks for a nice image amidst so many mundane!!!.

One of my favorites in this challenge so far. Hope it does well for you. Love the powerful red car against the black and white.

Congrats on a wonderful well deserved ribbon Soni !
She's just beautiful. I love the background with the leaves about you used. I'm always looking for that type of location but they seem hard to find.
