Congratulations!!!! Wonderful! A mothers tenderness and love. Beautiful! What a treaured moment for that little child to see when she grows up, and captured by her grandmother. I think it should have gotten the gold.

wow, beautiful photo, I'd say there a chance to ribbon with this one, only thing is that your bottom right corner seems to have too big of a bright spot, maybe try dodging just a little on the bottom (toward right side) to smooth it out or something, 10 |

Awesome photo! I wish I could vote on it. I think the DOF on the feet and eyelashes is excellent. Only thing I would think might help would be to remove the veil or fabric that seems to be in the image. But, I'd have to see it without it to know one way or the other. |

Lovely shot, though I'm not sure about the blurry corners - makes it look a bit tacky for my taste and I think the image would have been stronger without them. I like it though, and the toes are beautifully in focus. 7 |
