This is a lovely photo, so full of emotion. Who doesn't remember getting into Moms bed when they were sick? The girl even looks like I did at that age. Techincally lovely as well. You should have scored in to top ten easily!

Awe. This didn't score as high as it should've. It definitely says nostalgia. One of the best fits for the topic IMO. I like how she's snuggled down under the covers. The bedpost in the foreground is a bit big and bright maybe, but it adds some depth so I'm not sure I'd get rid of it anyway. Great emotion in this shot. I gave it a 7.

She's looking quite comfy and the white and orange drapes I think make the nostalgia for this photo along with the bedposts. Did you try one with the eyes closed??? Other than that, great shot, I like it.

Oooh that looks comfy - I'm sure I've slept in that bed before. :D

I remember those days too - but my Dad gets fed up if I do it now coz there's not much room now. Great shot with lovely DOF. Could have straightened it up a bit though!

Very nice way of showing the idea. My personal recollection of such a time & age was not so much getting in the bed as jumping off the wardrobe on to it. Boy was that some thick feather mattress cover. Difference between boys and girls I suppose!

Well done.

The blurry bedpost is very distracting to me, I would have possibly taken the photo from a different angle.

I'm not sure how I feel about the bedknob. In one respect, it has to be there to establish depth, in the other respect, it's distracting...

the fuzzy bedpost focus is very distracting. if it were in focus, it might frame the picture better.
