the scene is excellent - the basket and hood well delivered - i just wonder if a wider and further back shot would have given a better feel of overwhelmed by the forest

I like the dull light in the woods, it makes the cape stand out more, the green/yellow could've easily dominated the shot.

Great shot, love the saturation and leaves on the ground.

A touch dark overall, but otherwise nicely done. Good strong colors without them being unreal looking.

feels too static. You do capture the feel of the story though. 6

submitting to this challenge
you must have thought there
would be a lot of little red
hoods, and red riding hood
submissions, so if you choose
to do this story then yours
has to stand out and grab the
views attention. this is just
okay for me.

Really like the setting and the beautiful leaves on the ground. Wish "Red" were a bit more focused. Seems the focus is on that middle bush.
