Lesley, how did you get this shot. This is one of my favorite photos of all time. she is SO pretty! And its such a natural looking photo. Your wildlife photos are absolutely the most kick-butt thing I've ever seen!! :)
This is glorious. You probably got DNMC comments, but to me it's soft and subtle in its tones. Is it Hermione from the Harry Potter stories? Naw, her familiar was a cat, right? Hope this does well.
This image stands out for me as one of the better ones in the challenge. Unfortunately, the feel is more earth tone than pastel but the softness does project a feel of pastel. Interesting paradox. 7
I have always admired the birds of prey! They are so elegant! The owls attention is really focused on her hands. The handler looks very young. Her hair matches the color tones of the birds feathers. I like the color range used here. At first I wasn't so sure but as I sat here looking at it, I have grown to like it.
What a STUNNING PHOTO in every way. Your model is gorgeous. The owl is so incredibly beautiful, and your background is so complimentary. This is going straight into my favorites folder.
