I like the treatment, noise and light. Neat shot.

I like the grainy effect and the light catching the winter coats of these horses. The composition is incomplete feeling both horses are cropped oddly.

I'm sorry there is nothing "stand out" in this photo that gives it an edge.

This looks like a Christmas card! His rosy cheeks and feet are such a compliment to his bright red jammies and the tree and presents add a nice Victorian feel to the shot. You might not have a ribbon for this photograph, but you have here something far more valuable. This is a priceless memory to be framed and cherished for years to come. I wish I had such a portrait of my own children.

Awesome shot! I am sorry I didn't get to vote on all of them. This would have been a 10. He is a cutie pie!

Can't believe this didn't win. I have kids so I'm biased. Fabulous shot! Your family will surely cherrish this one for a long time. By far, one of my favs.

A beautiful shot overall! Although I really like the angle of the child, it might be nice to tilt it a little left to make the tree appear more vertical here. Or maybe a perspective adjustment. Anyway, it's a wonderful shot as is! One of my ribbon picks.
