She actually was grief stricken to learn that she had to pose for yet another picture. This time in the snow and wind, with temps at 20 degree's. Poor kid. She actually said "Please lets go home", not "Please Come Home" as the title read.

overlooked this one somehow until i linked it up in a forum post... I love it! Actually... the fact that this placed at 100 baffles me! fantastic job... you should have added one of the oh so familiar cliches like a water drop or macro bug on her hat I guess!?!

The wood chopping idea sounds great......only after she cleans the windows and floors. ;O)

Loved this one and was very surprised it didn't score much higher. Anyway love your style!

Ahh, yes that why models get paid big bucks - GRIN! Great story with it. Hope she got paid in big lashings of hot chocolate and cookies (at least!)

I really love the processing used and se is such a pretty girl that you just couldn't go wrong. The composition is perfect and I love her little sideways cap.

Very emotive shot, effective processing and composition.

beautiful eyes...nice depth of field...

This version looks great too! I like the context. Good luck!

I have seen this before; don't know where; perhaps 1x.
Very nice image, though! 9.

Interesting ambiguity in title: girl wanting someone else to come home or others wanting girl to come home. Enjoyable compositon with the diagonal of snow covered road and the downslope of her hat brim implying a triangle that helps lead our eyes to her face. Noticed you got this accepted at 1exposure.com, an achievement in itself. Well done.

strong composition
haunting
hard to fault

I saw this on 1x.com and commented on it there, but I just have to comment again. This is just so incredibly striking to me. The tangled mess of her hair and the obvious discomfort from the cold create such an awesome mood and her eyes just glow. Fantastic!

Lots of emotion here. Good job.
01/01/2009 12:08:10 AM
WELL done. I hope it scores highly for you!
