Compelling photograph and well composed -- would even be better if Mustang wasn't so trashed. I'm having a problem understanding how this meets the challenge of "shutter speed" though. This photo appears taken during the day (no long exposure necessary) and nothing in motion is frozen or blurred -- well, nothing is in motion to be frozen or blurred -- just doesn't seem to meet the challenge.

Excellent. One of the few photos I've seen so far that actually got the concept, as I understood it. Not only have you captured the subject of the challenge, but you've done it quite well. Lighting is spot on. Sharpness is spot on. I would be interested in seeing your other shots of this one. Some with the branch slightly turned to the right, maybe a few at a tilt. You might have picked the best, but I see possibilities. Still earns a rare 10 from me though. This is 1 of 2 favorites in this challenge so far -- and after seeing all the other photos, the only 10. Good luck and I expect a ribbon.

Title bumps this up at least one point. Nice use of complimentary colors and I totally get the inanimate object having a definite human quality.

I would have rated this higher if you weren't holding the lightsource in your hands. Nice photo otherwise.

Just a touch dark. A little softer focus on the background would be nice, but what you have is OK. Perfect catch on expression. Nice job of cropping/framing.

Eyes, scarf, excellent. Eyes -- incredible. The white space on the left I'm not liking so much. I would have preferred it cropped more on the left with possible white space on the right -- the direction she is looking, sort of.
