Another "outside-my-comfort-zone" Challenge entry. It was raining really hard and this mother was sacrificing getting wet for her daughter.

White Rain... hope the future's gonna be brighter for them.

(I am not expecting this to do well...maybe mid 5s, but I am challenging myself to create something new. Anyway, I will be back to my "territory" soon but in the meantime, I am having fun with all these twists and turns in my journey.)

I strongly disagree with anyone who didn't rate this 8 or higher. It's like looking at a painting. I enjoy the motion of the subjects. Very appealing.

Great image. I'm glad you stepped out of your zone if you produce such as this.

The philistines have proven me wrong about your top ten finish! Extremely underrated. I'm disappointed you didn't get a top ten with this, you certainly deserved it IMO.

I like the high key effect, while clearly showing the rain accumulation on the ground. Love the grain, too.

Wow, nice piece of art! I like the bold, slightly grainy colours and blur form motion. This is a nice story, very well done!

edit - picking this as a top ten shot, good luck!

i like the high key effect you have here combined with the long exposure time. the people seem a bit grainy tho, maybe due to oversharpening?

cool. the grain and softness work very well for the picture - except may be her face. i wander what settings you had.

Didn't care for this at first - but it's grown on me. I think the motion blur and colors actually work pretty well. Cool angle and shot. Nice work.

This was a unique style. The white background and the colorful umbrella worked very well to give this photo zip. I didn't like the really strong motion of the people, though. I know it was a creative technique but without seeing it with less blur on the people, I can't say if this photo works totally as it stands.

very nice photo, i love the blur and the invisible background (so the subjects are more prominent)

I'm a fan of high key shots but this might be a little too much IMHO. The implied movement is great and I like how there's a sense of urgency in the image. Like the girl being late for class or something. Is this yours Manny?

I really love this image and am interested in your post processing.

I love the contrasts here, and the high key approach to the background. 8

WOW! I just love everything about this one. Good luck to you! 10

Wonderful shot, one of my favourites. I'm a sucker for high-key panning shots. Nice use of diagonal.

aznym, or someone who is trying to produce an aznym effect. subject feels more asian though. nice processing, and a brave attempt. i hope you'd think 8 is allright.

Holy cow I love that purple! I wonder how many comments about "over exposure" you will get {{{sigh}}}...this is great just the way it is...the blur is fantastic...I just really like this....and that purple...totally electric.

Fun perspective and movement. I like the turquoise and purple - very vivid. Nice reflections.
