Thanks all for the fantastic comments and the red ribbon. This shot took several tries to get, but it was worth it. In the end I was surprised how cooperative the subject was.
The original intent was a game of hide-and-seek, but my wife saw time-out in the corner when she first saw it. Just goes to show how subject photography can be to a viewer.

Congratulations on taking a ribbon in this challenge with this wonderful entry! One of my ribbon picks in this challenge, it is well comosed and executed and an adorable story telling image which I interpretted as a time out (maybe cuz I had so many at that age), but equally as charming as hide and go seek. Wonderful, talented and creative work!
when i saw picture...i thought...all things are not simply "black and white"... An astonishing picture that I really like and appreciate!!! great work and congrats on ribbon :-)
two ribbons in a couple of challenges...well done, you are on a roll, keep going like this and you'll catch Kiwiness and the likes...love this shot, it was one of my favourites...i thought it might have been a Lesley Goodman shot, but no, it was a SherwinJames shot...great work
I am deviating from my normal critique style a bit because you pleased the voters enough to score a ribbon. It looks like you are on a roll here lately, and the ribbons keep coming. The only thing I'd like to see different in this image would be a little less exposure. It provides a nice high-key feel, but it is just a little to strong for my personal taste. You did a great job in meeting the challenge. Congrats on another ribbon. Very nice work.
With that said, LOVE IT! Compostion, processing, perspective...all tops. I am not sure if she is in a "time out" or if she is playing "hide and seek", either way very creative.
I like how the floor lines and the lines of the moulding all lead the eyes to the girl in the corner. Even when I first looked at it and got the impression of her having to stand in the corner for being bad, I still had to smile at it. Then I saw your title and realized she was counting, which made it better. The only nit is I think you cropped it to close to her head. I think a little more room would have been better. Still an excellent job.
One of the rare photos in this challenge that combines a sense of the empty room with good composition and an actual REASON for something to be there. Bonus points for not stating the obvious in the title and letting the viewer imagine the story. I prefer a bit more shadow detail, and a wider angle would help, but still one of the best this week. 9
Nice effort. But IMHO the head of the girl is so close to the top of the frame. Of course I noticed the nice detail at the bottom-left, but I think it's still close :)
I have this picked as my winner. Great shot, great post processing. Hopefully she will look back in years to come and know that her suffering got you a virtual ribbon (for what thats worth). Well done and good luck. Bumping up.
Great idea. I think this may be getting DNMC comments because it is a person, but not from me. I hope this does well. Only change I would make is to the title - "...98,99,100..."
Awwwwwwwww. . . .Ok. ..this is my new favorite in this challenge. There have been a few that I really loved, but this one is it! I wish I could give it a 20! The sentiment conveyed is so strong. I just want to hug that little girl who probably just misbehaved in some way :) 10!!
Beautiful shot!!! It's the greatest idea of all! Beautiful girl and the idea of putting her in the simplest position (playing hide and seek), is the thing that makes this photo one of the greatest of the ones I've seen until now.
