 This was actually taken back in January for the Lensbaby side challenge. It was taken a couple of strides after this: . Now that I look at the shots again, I like this one a lot better than the previous one. Such is life...

I didn't like the shadow, so I tried to lessen it a little with the default lighting filter tweaked to put the girl in the spotlight. Used a homemade filter for texture and added Diffuse Glow for more grain. The border is one of the faux finish brushes in CS3.

Good sense of texture, color, and placement in this. Very reminiscent of Mexican art/paintings.

Yes there does seem to have a different balance to it than the other one - she's so neatly between the two areas of the wall. I like how you processed this, especially how she seems to glow a bit.

I love the spotlight you've put on her, really makes that pink purse pop! And yes, I like her placement in this image much more than in the previous one. This is very captivating!

I like the placemat of the person in this one better, but I also like the greater distance in the other. Guess I like them both!

What shadow? LOL! Excellent processing, love the spotlighting effect. She's a bug under our microscope! That border kicks ass too!

I think this is your best 'wall' photo to date. Excellent!

This is so simple yet so artfully composed. Leg in mid-stride just to the left of that arched window!! Love the funky border.

She looks like she walking on a high wire. I don't know, it my be just my own weird perspective on things.
