 Good golly. I have so many edits of this image... I even have three named "Final".

I've finally had to say, "Lydia! Stop! Step away from the keyboard. Click the 'submit' button one last time. It's okay. You can do this... That's it... just press the mouse button down. It's only a photography competition. Life won't end depending on how you edit this image... GOOD girl! That's a good girl! Now... go to bed. It will ALL be okay... "



Gee golly... I hope it will be... *grin*

I see that most were not as happy with this shot as I was...but I still like it very much. This is my daughter and she lies on the floor like this very much of the time. So, finally I said we'd have to shoot that. We had a good half hour together on the floor of my bedroom with the rug rolled back.

Your daughter is very cute and VERY flexible! I wish I could still bend like that! :-)

Ohmy! I'd seen photos of Hannah but I didn't recognize her here. But I loved this in the challenge. She is such an exotically beautiful girl -- yet still she looks so innocent and pure. You did good, MOM!

I wanna be that flexible! Is this your daughter? She is beautiful! I love the lighting on her face.

Very nicely composed image of this beautiful young girl with very effective lighting resulting in nice soft tones yet retaining excellent detail. 8

Great pose, angle and low-key processing.

I like dramatic perspectives and tilts, but there is something about this that just makes me feel odd. Lovely girl, the lighting is great as is the composition.

nice soft shot, interesting choice in colour, nicely done maybe a few higlights in the hair would have made it stand out and not blend into the floor so much

a very interesting pose - the girl is very pretty and she seems to be very comfortable in front of the camera - i just wonder about the choice of exposure and processing

her strange leg positioning hurts this one for me

Lovely. I like the illusion of the tilt. Well done Lydia.
