Challenge: Wind (Basic Editing II)
Camera: Sony DSC-F828
Location: the yard

 Had her hair up in a ponytail that day. I took it down so the wind could blow in her hair. The wind was blowing pretty hard and because her hair had been up in the ponytail it caused her hair to go straight up...quite funny at the time

Returning for a second look. I didn't care to much for this at first, and gave it a 5. I like it more after spending more time with it and am bumping to 7

I love this image. The wind blown hair and especialy the expression on the child's face. Her expression implies something of the un-known about the wind. What is it ? Where does it come from ? Where is it going ?

I mean, this is just toooo cute! What did you do to get her hair standing up like that? Terrific shot, and like the sepia tones very much for this.

A nice haircut. But wind? I still like the effect, but I'm not sure it's due to wind or just the hair. 5

blown in more ways than one (ie: out). although i normally don't like this, you seem to have done something interesting with it and it doesn't necessarily work against you here - kind of creates a unique feel/look, but may have preferred just a slightly higher crop on the bottom since there isn't much detail.

Do you mean blown highlights or blown by the wind. I'm a sucker for a double meaning and I also love experimentation with overexposure. Your technique certainly creates a dramatic effect.

I love this picture. it reminds me of my children. i feel that you captured the theme quite well.

Umm, how can i say this nicely...yuk. Not high key, but way overexposed - child looks to be wearing mime makeup or something. Whatever effect you were trying for did not succeed in my opinion.

Double entendre? Blown hair and highlights? Nicely done.

kind of washed out at the bottom. Beautiful model.

I like the photo but it does not seem like her hair is being blown by wind, it seems like it is styled that way for the photo. I don't see the motion of wind in the photo.

a bit 'over' blown - good idea
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I think the contrast is a little overdone for my taste, but what a great expression, and that HAIR. 7.
