This is a marvelous portrait. I love the fact that she is entering the photograph from the side, instead of the standard "head-on" shot. Your model is adorable to boot :-)

This absolutely meets the challenge. I am wondering if it might have had a little more impact if you had increased the saturation.

Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Blue Shadow
by Kavey

Comment:
The composition of this is very pleasing to the eye. The fact that the shadow is curving upward in such a nice "swoop" gives the photograph a feeling of movement even though everything is obviously stationery. The only one (small) flaw that I find is that the white of your background is a little on the grey side. I know you could have fixed this in post precessing, but you might have lost the blue shadow impact so I am guessing this is the best compromise you could do. Nice 8 BAMartin

I love the play of light on the water. I also love that you caught the child in silloutte. I am sorry that I can not add any constructive critisism to theis photo, but there is nothing I would change. BAMartin

One of my strongest memories of childhood is at the end of the day and everyone has to go home.I wish that the basketball hoop was somewhat more separated from the trees in the background but I am not sure that was possible. 8 BAMartin

This is by far my favorite photo this week. I think the diagonal works well here. Great job. 10 BAMartin
