Looking at the montage you posted, if you had used the red version, oversaturated or not, I bet you would have had a top 10 finish! I love this shot but the muted colors probably hurt it in the overall scores. But a great capture and I'm glad to see I'm not the only mom who lets her kids play in puddles, did you teach her how to do it properly like I had to teach my oldest? :)
Great shot |

| I love this ... how the top portion "begs" for you to go looking at the bottom. And how, looking carefully at the bottom, you can find all of the answers to the questions posed by the top. Wonderfully done... should have scored much higher! |

| I really like how you caught her footwork. I wonder what her face looks like. |

| What a great idea! I really like the focus on the reflection rather than including both the girl in reality and her reflection. This keeps the composition much more simple and gives the eye a place to rest. I'm guessing this is selective desaturation? It seems just a tad washed out if that's the case. I like the lightness of it but something seems a bit too flat for my tastes, maybe if the dark areas were richer in their darkness, more contrast or something. Not sure! Either way I think its a great image. I gave a 6. |

Great idea just colour seems a little washed out (no pun intended)
I would of liked to have seen the legs a little sharper |

| Love this, I think it would work even better with the red's boosted and the rest desatutrated. Very nice shot 8. |

| I would like this pic much better if it included the child's head. I leaves me with a weird feeling without that reference. 5 |

| The best of the "Puddle Stomping" shots in the challenge in my opinion. Good Luck! |

| neat photo. playing around with the cropping and saturation might have led to some other interesting results. |

| i understand she was probably looking at her feet stomping the puddles but i wish that her hair was even just a little bit more upright, because att first i thought she didnt have one (sorry if its a wee fella!) |

| This is a great photo, I think if you rotated it 30 degrees or so - so the boots are upper left and reflection is lower right - it would be a stronger composition. Try it and let me know what you think - or show me - I'd be interested to see. Terrific work though - nice job |

| Great composition! You can almost feel the "joy" of splashing. My only nitpick is that the knees look a little plastic-y and colorless. There's just enough color to keep it from being bw, but not enough to look like the healthy child that it seems to be. |

| This is great, but I would have liked to see the head (in the reflection) - it is spooky without a head :) |

| Great use of reflection and interesting cropping. I think I quite like the lack of head - creates an abstract and anonymous feel. Selective desat works too. |
