So sorry for those of you who are having to look at yet another portrait of my daughter. I was just so excited to be entering again and I had shot these for the light challenge. It was so fun entering challenges again that I couldn't help but enter one in the free study. I didn't shoot anything the rest of the month so an outtake of this one was all I had. I think a few of you must have had an issue with that as my score dropped dramatically today in just a few votes. The votes scrubber got a few of them and it rose back up a bit after the challenge completed, so that was a bit of a relief.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments. Especially from those of you who knew it was mine and that I had entered two similar shots. I will try to get out more in January so it doesn't happen again. I am really itching to use my new wide angle. If the weather would just cooperate.
Really in the end the score was what it should have been. I love this photo of her but I missed the focus a bit. Still the overall feel of the image just kept drawing me to picking this one despite the missed focus.

Wow great to see you doing so well on your return. I look forward to seeing the photos you take with your new wide angle lens - I am sure they will be superb!
