First entry ever, very amature. Just reccently got interested in photography. This is my younger sister (age 13) in the afternoon, dancing in the dappled light of the early spring sunset. PLEASE view full!!!!! Unforunatly, there is not too much dappled light in the picture, but I feel there is enough in this shot to showcase (if viewed full, compression kills!). This is barely edited, only a little contrast and brightness added. Please leave comments/crituque/complements/suggestions. And of course, votes!

Good composition, great perspective and intersting to look at. I can see this being quite popular with the less 'mainstream' viewer. Well done!

Nice retro feel to this shot. Would like to have seen a richer black as the red tinge detracts from the atmosphere a little, but thats just me. Nice shot.

Seems haphazardly composed, and the dappled light effect doesn't really add anything.

Blurry, and the grayscale here is really monotoned.

Like the atmosphere, makes me wonder what's going on.

At first I wanted to say its softness disturbs. Now, I think it adds to the picture a retro and nostalgic feel. It is one of these pictures, where you can't tell when it was made, what year, which century. It leaves a lot to viewer imagination. I like it a lot.

This has a snapshot quality that I like. The "fogging" from the light really adds to that feeling.

I like the subject, the cropping and the rays of light desending on your subject. Very cute, i would suggest revisiting this and cleaning up the background a bit... or adding more.D

Really nice. Very artistic. Great use of dappling. (is that a word?)

I like the way your shot makes me try to look beyond the edges.

Nice black and white scheme the lighting is perfect because it really makes you focus on her feet but at the same time look over to the shadow great job
