 My first real attempt at candid shots.
These rosey cheeks are natural on my Swiss belle friend. She has been hand-sewing dresses for poor children in Guatamala and Asia for decades.

I don't usually like comments or give them, but since candids are near and dear to my heart, I have decided to comment on every photo in this challenge.

This photo really needed some USM and a tonal adjustment to get that story or emotion across. The colors here and lack of sharpness kind of fades away the moment. A 4 vote from me.

Oh my. This is excellent. The light and color. I like the slight tilt to it. BRAVO 10
