Deserves to take the blue ribbon. My favorite, by far, of this challenge.
The look in the Angels face is priceless.
A big fat 10 from me.
Good luck.

Gorgeous! And very innovative idea! Would have preferred it if she was sitting and leaning against the tree. That'd perhaps give a more dejected sentiment that echoes the environment. A wonderful job nonetheless!

I really like this image, it's probably my favorite in the entire challenge. One tiny suggestion of cropping the top just a teeny tiny bit to remove that speck on the border on the right side - it's a bit distracting to me when I'm looking at the wings, my eye keeps wandering up to it. Even so, I love the composition, the entire layout - it's a great image - nice work :)

very interesting because the branch looks to have broken, perhaps under the weight of the "winged one." Accomplishes the subject quite nicely and done well

Greetings from the Critique Club

YOu have a beautifully executed image here, one that was difficult to achieve. (But that hasn't stopped you before - your work seems to thrive on degree of difficulty)

The composition is perfect with the red sleeve directing the viewer to the action on the windshield. Your kids make excellent actors. Technicals seem to be just fine.

I suppose your score would have been closer to the front page if people could have figured out the pun (I couldn't either) but you came through nicely on other factors.

Continued good luck to you in future Challenges.

Very interesting. Minimalist, but not "bare."
