A truely nice soft focus. Not sure about the color though, but I like it.

This is my favorite of the challenge. The softness of the focus, the pastel blue shade, the peaceful, natural expression of a sleepiing child all combine to create a delicate work of art. I wouldn't change a thing. Good luck.

Very well done. Inspiring for someone (like me) trying to break out of the \"snapshot syndrome\". 8 :-)

I don't think there is enough contrast to make this work. I like the idea, very creative.

Colouring gives it a "sculpture" look, but a blue baby is kinda disturbing

The crop is just a little too close for my taste here, and it looks oversharpened. There are some burnt out highlights in the eyes, and I don't like the shadow cast behind the cat.
Other than that, I think this is fabulous! Great character and expression captured in this shot, I'm not sure I'd have wanted to be this near a cat baring it's fangs. 7

don't really care for the overall blue/green effect, I think it takes away from a nice shot
