Wow! Balloons are usually such pleasant objects. It's so sad when they give us "static." :}
Great job as always! :)

During voting I thought this was Scalvert's. Congrats on the ribbon!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Congrats on the ribbon. However I think you should have received
the blue.

IMO The two ribbons above yours were outstanding photos, except
for one thing. The focus was not the hair.

Your photograph
on the other hand is also outstanding and does focus
on the hair.

Everything works well with this photo. Lighting is right...seems to be drawn to the balloon also by static E. Your model is wonderful.

Great job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/24/2007 12:44:05 PM
Yep...typical kid...with the balloon and static stricken hair. The back-lighting really highlights the hair nicely. Well done!

  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/22/2007 02:59:58 PM
This is so good - the child's expression, the composition, the colours, the post-processing!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/20/2007 09:46:13 PM
Great idea and composition & expression, the background seems slightly too blown out
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/20/2007 06:48:41 PM
Very cute. The composition is great. The lighting is just perfect. I love the look on her face~! GREAT JOB! 10

I love this. One of a handful that rec'd a top scoring vote (10). The technicals are right on the mark (great lighting), and it's fun to look at. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

I'm usually not too fond of studio shots, but this one stands out from the rest. Amazing clarity and feeling. Great moment and great expression.

Fantastic photo! Excellent clarity, love the uniqueness. A 9!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 10:21:29 PM
Looks like a scalvert-type shot (that's great!)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 10:17:45 PM
ohh wow, this is so cute. I love it. I think the focus is good and the expression is priceless. The lighting is the only thing I take issue with. the noise level in her eyes is a problem, and even though I understand the reason for the backlighting I think you need some sort of light in her eyes too. overall thought I think positives outweigh the negitives. good job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 08:22:43 PM
This is cool. Nice lighting and perfect sharpness. One of the first thoughts is definetely "hair".
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 04:58:00 PM
yes, I know that trouble well...... nice capture!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 03:56:21 PM
How CUTE! What a perfect model. She is so precious!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 01:04:57 PM
Nicely shot and generous sizing. 9.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 12:40:16 PM
This will get you a top placing for sure..... the hair is almost almost almost on the verge of being oversharpened For some "yes" for some "no", for me you have pushed it to the top limit :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 12:18:30 PM
i love it, the expression, lighting, set up. one of my favourites in the challenge
  Photographer found comment helpful.

excellent lighting and crisp focus...love the colour as well
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2007 01:44:38 AM
Cute! I love her expression. The lighting seems a bit harsh in places, esp on the arm holding the balloon and right behind her.

I might have prefered the title The Trouble with Balloons! lol.
