I thought this was the cutest image on the site by far. Too bad it didn't finish first but that was a tough spot to fight for. Image is perfect in everyway and is just simply beautiful. Nice to see a Nikon shooting something this sharp as well. Great work.

Isn't there a way to throw out "1" scores? It's ridiculous and obviously done with malice regarding a photo this nice.

These undeserving low scores can make the difference between ribbons or no ribbon at all.

So genuine, unstaged-looking. My choice of the challenge, the square, tight crop immediately underscored the "story" here. Congrats on the ribbon!

Yay! I'm glad to see this image on the home page although I do feel that it should be accompanied by a 7 score. Congrats on your first ribbon. Never has a little splash of virtual yellow looked so divine eh?! : ) Fantastic shot and I'd add it to fav's again if I could! Well done.

what a great clear shot!

It's a great intimacy portrait of an instant. The framing with the two faces in the upper side is perfect. Her expressions and eyes are perfect. Black and White seems really adequate. I love this photo!

Nice crop and slant, wonderful expressions on you subjects. I like it very much.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/28/2008 04:23:53 PM
This is a perfect 10 in my book. I love the expression on both faces. It just screams "Adorable" and "Girl Stuff". If I were forced to complain about something, I'd say the skin looks to smoothed... especially the left girl. They're both adorable. Made me smile.

 03/27/2008 01:44:10 AM
nice idea, cut shot, like the b&w and tight crop, well done.

 03/26/2008 09:19:23 PM
I just absolutely adore this image . It feels so sweet and real. Beautifully composed - nice contrast and light - great flow and lines - and such fun subject matter. Makes me smile and definitely conveys intimacy. A rare 10 from me and adding to favorites.

This is a very nice shot.
Well balanced and with a good exposure and an engaging subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very well executed! two playful giddy schoolgirls sharing the secrets of the universe, would not be surprised to see this one in the top 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The tones and sharpness in this are amazing! I'd love to know how you did it. Beautiful! Great expressions and capture of an intimate sisterly moment.

The catchlight in the eye of the storyteller is nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2008 12:54:09 AM
Lovely B&W toning. I love the look in the girl's eye as she is obviously telling a secret. And the smile on the other girl's face implies that she is hanging on every word. I like this image. Well done.

 03/26/2008 12:11:47 AM
lovely. The girl on the right looking into the camera just makes this. Beautiful image
