She looks like the old Kate Winslet in Titanic....Remember that lady...?

Beautiful portrait!

great emotion in this shot. maybe consider a tighter crop to remove the other heads in the frame?

Great portrait! I agree with rocketdog85, but it's difficult to be solved because the tighter crop will reduce the warm atmosphere for the face (the pink coat is very fit in this situation, I think)

Wonderful!

lovely, I hope she liked it too.

She is so beautiful.

wonderful work, nicely done. makes you want to smile along with her...

Great shot!!!!

agree with Govindrathod..wonderful entry..beautiful

Nice! Good job

ncie capture.... according to me... the best entry heree..

Sorry you are not getting as many comments as you deserve. I think yours have the most character out of most the other entries and excellent choice for grayscale.

sorry to ask, but is this photoshopped, because the blending around the head is all wrong!

It''s a good theme match but it does look a little chopped on the edge of the tree on the left side of his head.

Happy New year Ade, No it hasn't been Photoshoped, only curves and saturation, I went back and checked my Raw file.
Exposure f11 and 3.2 sec

i think we have see this before.sorry if i m wrong.

is it two images......because there is a definate difference in the colors between the head of the boy, and the trees

One image, I can supply the Raw file.

I think this looks shopped because the there is some motion blur on the scene but the boys face is sharp, ( because of flash i quess) if you look at the right side of the shot you can see the boys entry/exit point.(green blur from sweater).

I was looking moe at the green halo effect around the boy, where did that come from......and the 'hard' finished edge at the top of the halo above his head...........I am sorry, but I have to agree with Mark

Ade, I will email the original raw file to you.

mmm.........the raw shows what was shot, and it was this!..............very strange indeed.......I am sorry for doubting you, but it really does look like a bad PS job..

Thanks Ade, but I don't do BAD PS jobs (LOL)

lol...........I am sure you don't my dear!.......

If you say it's not PS'd, that's good enough for me and this is one of the better images in this contest, so good luck!

OOOO NO, Im so sorry, Ade missunderstood my comment. I meant it LOOKS shopped because.... I was trying to explain the sharp edges when i mentioned the flash and the blur as a cammera effect, Really hope this didnt offend.
