4.22.10 I have gotten quite a few comments on the processing. I did it for two reasons. One, I didn't want to do bw with sc on the balloon - just not my style I wanted on this. Two, without tweaking the foliage it was WAY too busy - this allowed the attention to be drawn to the girl and feel more like a fantasy land. At least that was what I was hoping for :-) Glad this bumped up over a 6 because at it's low it was 5.3 the first 24 hours.

Robbed! The rest of the team saved 6th and 7th spot for you and Sherm, because that's where they deserved to be. Wonderful Photo.

Have to say that my mind ran through quite a few adjectives when I saw this; sweet, cute, pretty, then immediately behind that: dark, mysterious, scary, frightening. A simple photograph. So much you can read into it. Nicely done though.

a great opportunity wasted. the fire is uncertain without giving the impression of the story, the light is too intense.
