I played with the settings on this shot before I took it because I'd just taken a bad photo of another niece. My settings had been set for a low light situation and pretty much everything went wrong that could. You can see it in my portfolio. The title is Help Needed. Several site members worked on it and the difference is amazing. Anyway, I set the aperture but let the camera decide the shutter speed. I wanted to make sure there was enough light. I also adjusted the white balance to indoor lighting because I've finally learned the color cast of indoor shots is horrible with the wrong setting. Sadly, it took a while. lol
Thanks for everyone's comments.

This was one of my highest scoring shots. I thought it would place much higher. Imagineer said it perfectly --- Crazy.

This is my favorite shot of the challenge and sadly; your title is all too true. I hope you do well.

The subject was a good choice, but the photo is too washed out in my opinion. Next time you might try tweaking the levels and upping the contrast a little. Good luck.

Very cool image. The only thing I wish is that I could see the top of the wrist a little more---which may be a result of my monitor. Anyway, great job.

Excellent clarity and use of space.
