Wow - those eyes are gorgeous! Can't take my eyes off of you - this song comes to my mind immidiately.
But I don't like the bottom part (especially the shadow in her cleavage) If it were my picture I would have cropped it about at the hight of the collarbone

I enjoyed reading your notes on how you created this picture! When you mentioned tequila I suggested that you have been to Mexico, haven't you? But for me everything is remembering me of Greece, the donkey and the colours ...that is catching my eye and I actually feel that the shovel is secondary (the reason why this only got a 5 from me - sorry about that) If the challenge was "still life with donkey" I would have given a 7 or 8.

Comment by primabarbara:
The young woman evokes sympathy and curiosity one what she's playing, even though you mentioned the French song...And you did a great job with this very smart processing. It wouldn't be that strong with more contrasts, because the backgroungd would have been too distracting. I'm just wondering why her left shoe and the dog's nose are more blue than the rest of her?

Not sure this needed the blur and it was certainly good enough without it, lovely image. I remember doing something like this way back.

Glad this turned up again. So I had a change to valuate it once more.
I was one of your 8s and I would still give an 8. But I agree with ecmguy about the blurring

I absolutely love the light, the washed colors save for the red legs. It's a story to behold. I gave this a 7.

The minimalist approach intersects with the complementary color palette and quirky story (original and interpreted by Don and Mita) come together so well.
