Nevermind.. the thought was there you may have just needed to take a bit more time at the photo stage. think about the light, whats in frame. Do you take lots of shots just in case ? and then pick the best one?

I understand you idea here, but I don't think this shot presents it clearly ....we don't see the swing...but we see a chain, arm and branches in the background. To realize this we'd of needed to see her fully. Hope this is somewhat helpful to you.

is she on a swing? Cool crop but the feeling of being 'free' that comes from swinging is totally cut off with the close crop. And if she's not a swing, then she's just whacky and I like her! ;-)

Subject underexposed and background is distracting.

The composition and lighting are charming. I'll give it a 9 but I expect itwon't win.

Hehe! you love getting in your shots don't you?! I think the title would have been better as "Resposability? Still a kid at hart" or parts there of. Its hard to work in a title on this one. I also think repaeting the Challenge subject in the title will loose you points also, the Title should reflect that. See if you can guess mine?

Shadows on the face could go away. The composition is good.

the sky is nice. the tree is the what you want us to look at ? NO? then the composition is wrong, the subject (ther person, right?) is too dark.
