After the Challenge:
Thank you for proving a truth that I am starting to know more intensely every day now!
As an individual on the high end of the Autism Spectrum, I don't "read faces" the same way NT's (Neuro-Typicals) do.
I see this young lady as having a very pleasant, happy face who has been caught in the act of saying the word, "Hi!"
O, Well! I suppose I must continue to "Live and Learn." :) |

Critique Club feedback -
Photo matches the message well - a happy face to reinforce a motivation to maintain a happy disposition.
Both the shot and the word happiness seem to be a little on the pinkish side. This impression is reinforced by the pink color of the quote itself. I think a bit of white balance adjustment on the photo would go a long way towards making this poster pop overall, and perhaps putting Happiness in a simple bright white would enhance the poster as well. |

| Good idea but I would like to have seen a different expression to convey happiness. She looks more surprised than happy. |

| She looks drugged on a horse tranquiliser rather than happy, otherwise I like the exposure on the face, and the message is great :) |
