POO - this should have placed much higher. I gave it an 8 with no hesitation. Great shot.

He, he, I like her choice of shoes for this!

Such a beatiful image, but I wish it was a little lighter on the NeatImage or softening around the little girl's face. The light is very nice and you've fit the challenge perfectly. I also find the processing around her left arm a little distracting.

The bike seems to be way too small for her. Nice lighting.

She looks like she is concentrating very hard. Good for her. She should be proud of her accomplishment.

i think this is a great choice for the topic and i do love the girl's obvious concentration, but i think that the 'celebration' aspect of the photo might have come through more clearly if she was smiling. as well, given the topic, a brighter overall shot might have made sense. still, a nice job!

A little underexposed imho. Otherwise a good capture. I like the soft focus effect used.

the softness looks unnatural

There's a glow that seems to be applied to this image. Not too fond of it since IMHO it's a bit distracting. Otherwise, it's a good memory of days gone by learning how to use a bike for the first time :)

Nice exposure and use of filter.

I love the look of concentration on her face! I'm not sure I like the effect you put on here tho, especially on her right arm it looks funny. 6

I like her concentration, but I think the focus could have been a little better.

Little too much post-processing. Cute girl, good idea.

Is this a smilebig4me1x shot?

She's really concentrating on steadying those wheels. I love the soft glow filter. It makes it feel less like a snapshot.
