Wonderful composition with child 2/3rds into the photo. Nice lighting but not enough detail in child's face and doesn't look in focus while people in the background appear to be sharper. Would have made a great composition even better "flipped" with the child facing left so when the eye came into the photo it would come into the face rather than back of child's head. BUT all that said taking off 3 points for the lack on focus on main subject (the child)

in my opinion this is probably a bit saturated for the challenge but cool shot nonetheless!

Beautiful flowers, I wish they were more defined and thatthere was an overall higher clarity to the image.

Lovely take on the challenge. And thank you for not showing me your nose
sniffing the fragrance. It comes across on one of my monitors as a bit 'hot' but on the other it's quite nice. Good luck!

Without the title, I wouldn't know which sense you chose right away. Having someone smell the flower, or have it juxtaposed to a perfume bottle would help. Nice overcast/rainy day pick with bright magentas though.
