I like your take on the theme and I think I know what you were going for. It just seems to lack a little chaos.

yeah, i didn't really mean to describe the surroundings as "chaotic", but i couldn't find the words i wanted to use....i was hoping the grafitti and the crumbling walkway and the woman selling beverages in the background would represent the "rough", while the child herself represents the "soft"

nice colours and detail

Nice find

i like it, but it's a little dark, will hold my vote.

Can you upload high res is possible? It does seem a little dark but I like your thinking and take on the theme. I'll vote later too

Sorry, this is as bright as I can get it without spoiling it...

I did try it in black and white but that just made Pooh look sad...

Lovely image

And.... Marble is soft and silk even softer. Lovely image though but I guess off topic

Seems more "soft and hard" rather than "soft and rough"

beautiful
