Thank you so much. Of course, I was very upset by the score, but I am here to learn and improve so I appreciate feedback of any kind.

I'm afraid there's not much of interest in this for me, and to top it off it looks like lensbaby as well which is a look I just take a disliking to in almost all cases.

This looks like a Lesbaby, which is not one of my favorite things, and the focal area seems just a tad hot. Nice concept that does work with the title.....5

Summer IS so far away.... I like the blur (lensbaby, I'm presuming).
Nice candid capture.

Your subject is overexposed, I think. Maybe get closer...

Little to far away from subject and overexposed a bit

Wonderful sense of distance - not a bad thing, just a distance, as though it is a memory.

Lensbaby? Hope so, or the 6 I'm giving for this will be more than deserved.. If it is a lensbaby, this is a pretty cool shot!

Focus on your subject would have been beneficial, as well as a much, much tighter crop.

at first i didnt like it, but then it gave me a dreamy feel of great times gone by...

Yes it does. I have 8" on the ground, but I have sun. Blowing bubbles is such a 'summertime' activity. Kids, laughing and chasing them. This is a real SUMMER shot. I like how you have her isolated the eye goes right to her.

such a very fun picture...might have stepped up just a bit closer

the DOF works well in this i would have prefered the face not so blown out as you lost detail in that
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/23/2010 12:19:20 AM
Too blown out, blurry, and undersaturated to my eye.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The blur of the grass for me does not work in the image, and the rest of the image lacks interest. The subjects face is overexpossed and the background is very dark

Cool use of the lensbaby here.
