Grain, light and toning used to brilliant effect, plus the fuzziness in the legs providing movement. Really beautiful shot and genuinely evocative of yesteryear childhood memories - even to the detail of her skirt and shoes. Absolutely brilliant interpretation and execution.

I woke up and there was a spider staring right at me

YIIIIIIIIIIIKES!!!! I HATE SPIDERS!! That scared the living crap out of me! Now I'm fully scrolled up so that I can type this and vote without having that horrible scary big black hairy spider macro staring at me! I think from the 2 or 3s of 'what the heck is that..oh sh!t it's a spider' it was a nicely focussed shot and definitely a great childhood memory to capture...but I dare not go back and check. Double yikes with cheese. To go.

Let me out of here!

Aha! Another birthday view. I wanted to do this shot but didn't get hold of the props. I actually like yours more than the other one that I've just seen because of the depth of field and wider shot. Very nicely done.

I really like this shot - it's really appealing. Funny title, but nicely poignant image and great choice of props. The lighting and contrast in colour between Raggedy Ann and the rocking chair give it an almost partial desat feel without doing it. Very nice.

The grain and focus really work well, as does the square crop and b&w - which for me gives a real 'memory' feel. I think you've met the challenge better than most so far by it being such an evocative shot/edit.

Nice one - this is what I had in mind but couldn't get the props together. Nicely executed too. +1 for the "wish I'd done that" factor :)

Great image! Who doesn't remember the dreaded itch and the smell of calomine lotion. Love the processing and title. Simple composition but with lovely dark undertones. +1 for being counter-eyecandy :)

I'm really glad this got a decent score. I gave it a 10 - was my favourite from the whole challenge because it stood out for it's originality...i.e. not a bald eagle, duck or hummingbird...but taking a common bird and simply transforming it into a thing of beauty.
