This is nice overall. Wish for a tad more DOF throughout, but still a nice entry. Good luck.

Apricots have a short season, so it is nice to see the preservation in a photo. That is a good plate for photographing nice glow you captured.

Congratulations, Barbara! I didn't recognize your daughter but of course I immediately recognized the reference to the "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Great job recreating the vibe! Like I wrote to Jonathan, I envy you guys that you have easy access to your daughters as your models, mine is long gone from the house and lives across the continent.

It's funny -- I instantly registered the delightful Audrey Hepburn inspiration for this, but it took me a while to catch the Breakfast at Tiffany's reference. :-P

A beautiful portrait all around. Honestly, I don't see any issue with the nose, either. I love the personality radiating from the expression. It's clear your daughter has learned to trust your instincts behind the camera--and I have much to learn from that. :-)

Congrats on a well-deserved win!

I can dido your story with my 26 year old daughter. Now in LA and and I am on the east coast. I miss her so much and she was my model in her earlier years.
