I appreciate your sentiment, truly I do. I knew going in it probably wouldn't score well. But it didn't matter. Simply for the fact of how many people enjoyed it (like yourself), commented and saved it as their fav. That to me, made it the "best" challenge and entry to date. Thanks again for your comment and also everyone else who made this by far the best experince on DPC yet.
Sincerely,
T.

| Almost looks like a painting. I love the blur and color on this. It was one of my favorites during the voting. |

Wow love the story behind this. I think it is a lovely photo and with the story it is superb. should have finished higher. Definately should have finished higher than mine.
Oh forgot to mention. I really like the warm deep rich colors you have captured.

nope , does not hit the right note with me, sorry.
Back to comment again an bumping up.
On looking at this image longer, I am starting to like it more, the tones and warmth from the image is starting to grow on me. Also from the post processing, I can see the care that you have taken to retain details in the background. Sorry for the initial vote bumping up to 6 |

| Elegant model and I like her facial expression however I do feel her face is a bit soft. I would have liked to seen at least a portion of her face sharper. Nice composition and negative space around the model. |

I really like this. There's so much that is not shown here. This leaves a lot of room for the imagination. The soft fuzzy shadowy areas in the bottom left really work nicely to get the curiosity and imagination to start working overtime.
The expression on her face starts the ball rolling and every time the eye comes back to it it shows a different emot10n. |

| I think you were trying to make the picture blurry for artistic reasons, but I know that dp users will have to score it down because of the blurryness. You would make the picture better if her face was at least sharp. And then I would also bring the crop down. I feel that her head is too high in the picture. |
