Just ran across this. Perfect lighting and focal detail. Love the diagonal and horizontal lines of the hair/blinds. Excellent.

A unique capture (love the hair) with great composition.
Tones are beautiful and the catchlights are perfect. Great job!
You need to frame this one!

The lines in her bangs are cool, as well as the blinds.

Very creative and it's amazingly sharp. A different background would have been better in my opinion.

I really do like this shot - so much more than some of the standard "Good looking child" pictures. The eyes have been captured very well. Second or third favourite for me out of 400 plus photo's in this challenge.

Fantastic image. Sharp, contrasty and an interesting take on the lines theme. I like it. Just maybe a little bit too much empty space on the left.

Great portrait! I like how you included the line background to reinforce the line motif, yet the shallow DOF makes it so it's not too overpowering. I love the rich skin tones as well. Nice job.

This is a very well-executed portrait of this little girl, but I don't think it's the best choice for this challenge. The lines aren't the main interest in the picture, her face is. The lines get in the way.

she's gorgeous...great portrait you should be proud of...I don't get the title, but that doesn't really matter (Inited Airlines Logo?)

great pic!

i like the idea of your shot. but to make the shot a lot stronger i would have cropped the shot quite seriously, leaving only her face and the hair lines.

great idea though.
