excellent take on the challenge... although the colors are bold and very much the focal point, perhaps a little more care could have been taken with the desat area with more range between the light and dark tones... nonetheless a very good challenge entry and top ten in my opinion... :)

Very cool photo. Such a fun subject and great composition. This is one of the instances where the selective desat works very well. One of my favs in this challenge.... 8

Yeah, we've seen those glasses before! Superb shot, excellent response to the challenge. Perfect crop. The expression on her face (what we can see of it) is priceless. I would like to see greater contrast in the BW portions - I think this would make the image pop a little more, but as is, it's a top 10 for sure.

I bet her "tutu" was cold sitting on this snow!
I liked all of this series. I felt they all had their own charm and story, great work!

Oh, this one is wonderful too. I bet it was hard to pick. This has a repeat of the edge of her scarf - like a similar smaller shape as one of the wings. Wow - you are amazing to have even thought of this. I hope she had as much fun as we did looking at these wonderful images!!!

"If you had not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
And I patched up your broken wing
And hung around a while
Tried to keep your spirits up
While you were feelin' down
I knew someday that you would fly away
For love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground " Willie Nelson

ooooh ! This one is cool on a different level. Her tutu almost has the same rounded shape as the wings. Like the angel fell to the ground and her wings got stuck on the tree. This one is sad, whereas the winning one was more uplifting. I sure like this one though!!
