I like this. There's amovement and story to this besides good focus and composition. Well done.

I want him. Cute catch.

Wonderful photo, colors, lighting and contrast background. It's just an opinion, but I might look at cropping out the holder except for her hand and offsetting the acrobat a little. IMO. I've always worried about the physical complications experienced by these children in later life. Amazing acrobat.

Nice angle. I hope you gave him the treat after the shot.

Beautiful entry and focus is perfect. Well done.

Very creative and well done especially the USB bait. Lighting is perfect.

Beautiful. Wide angle lens? It was a perfect choice. Congrats.

Thanks for confirming me as a friend. I 've enjoyed your entries especially the Royal Flush special effect. I've got a tutorial about it and only need the pin light to start trying it. I hope it turns out as good as your entry. Again thanks for the friend.

Simply fantastic and if this win isn't impressive enough, I looked at your portfolio again and I can't say enough. You are the man. Congratulations.

Well done. Simple and right on theme and the lighting tops it off.

Beautiful and the screen almost gives the feeling of motion. Well done.

Very pretty and not a type we have in Florida. Good composition and overall entry.

A little dark IMO. You might experiment with brightning and re upload if you like it better. It looks like a pretty DOF.

.....and great DOF.

I think he's cross eyed, but beautiful. Great catch because front shots usually scare them. Well done

I agree its a great Dali styled image and well done author.

Excellent entry and congrats on making it to the final four. We are all excited to entries from this extremely talented group. Good luck.

Great entry and well deserved to be in the final 4. Way to go and good luck this week.

As always, very creative. Congrats and good luck in the final week.

Well deserved. Congrats on your earning a Final 4 position. I can't wait to see your entry. Good luck.

Looks like the beginning of a "Ghost Busters" beach assignment. Well done. How's the fishing?

The other word you may already know is.... Avalanche ! Beautiful image author

The more polished the rail, the more a train is still in use.. Good rail maintenance and very nice shot.

If your parents won't give you a pony, ask for a train. The contract in the forefront together with what looks like some morning mist combine for a beautiful shot. Nise find.

Great effort by you to polish those rails for the photo. You might try to upload again and click the High Res box. You'd be surprised how good it will look regardless of the size of the file. It's a beautiful image.

I can't tell whether it's natural light or filtered, but its beautiful and well composed. Well done.

Hi Res is wonderful. Proof that sometimes straight on is the best shot.

Wonderful detail and great idea for this contest. Good luck author.

Beautiful choice and perfectly executed. I have to put it on my list of techniques to learn which just got longer. Well done author.

Beautiful. I've got to learn how to do this set up. Well done.

It takes me about 5 seconds to determine a good image when I see one. It took less time to determine this was a good one. I've got to buy some lighing and practise this beautiful effect. Well done.

I really liked your idea and althought a little light IMO, I think your take on this contest was well done.

Very nice interruption of the theme. Well done.

Why didn't I think of that. Nice job !

Great collectible .

Very nice.

Beautiful shot and great lighting. Well done

A real flower girl. Nice idea.

Beautiful. Well matched.

well done with good DOF.

Beautifully done. Lucky you to have such a wonderful moment.

I really like this. The DOF gives it a mythical feeling. Good catch.

perfect take on the contest theme. Not sure if it's soft focus, but very nice.

This is a great shot...You deserved a much higher vote. congrats.

Good shot and on target with the contest description.

Sorry, I was distracted by the pretty subject and didn't notice the sprinkler.

Author, Did you mean to enter this in the "Looking back." contest?

Beautiful.

I keep coming back to this entry. The emotion created by your model is perfect. Agree with Kyricom, Wow! Could have been used for my first marriage engagement announcement .

Great cover for a re-release. Nice desaturation and soft focus. Can you please pass me the cover so I can read the list of songs?
