This is my wonderful daughter (who's actually an Aries).

No expert editing, only advanced editing. I couldn't come up with a funky, creative expert editing idea.

This is very special to me, because the bow is special to my daughter. Unfortunately, we don't have a place to use it. But this spot is just a short walk down the beach from the 4H club where she took lessons.

The outfit was from a halloween costume that I made her a couple of years ago.

I never thought that I'd be over 7 with an advanced editing shot in this challenge. Thanks for all the kind votes and comments!

Lovely silhouette against a beautiful sunset, Wendy. Congratulations on the HM.

Congrats, Wendy. I really like this. I especially like the sunlight glancing off the top of the bow, and the hemline of the dress, as someone else already mentioned. Nice that it has special meaning for you and your daughter too.

Congrats on your HM with this great 'normal' image. For me the best of all.

I like the minimalist approach. Like the backlighting by the sun. A top pick for me.

A bit oversharpened (obvious halos along bow string, bow, and edge of silhouette) but otherwise lovely.

Perfect 10.

Hope this makes the front page, best of the bunch.
