Thanks Ben and I do think the solarization gives it a bit of an over sharpened look and thrilled to be on the front page with your darling daughter.

Appreciate all the comments.

So, I'm guessing the solarization is what cranked the local contrast. I stand corrected. I've enjoyed the comments, and, to be honest, quite fun to be on the front page with you.

Gorgeous one of the best.

Love the tones, the complexity of the image combined with the relative simplicity of the composition, and a unique take on a very-thoroughly-photographed subject. Blur on the left seems a bit odd though--like a partially-transparent gaussian blur layer rather than "proper" blur from a shallow DOF--distracts a bit from an otherwise very cool photo.

I love it. Wish the left side of the leaf wasn't cut off. ;)

like the idea and composition and im a firm lover of shallow DOF but here i think it distracts from the overall feel 7

Magnificent. The tones, the lace, the bokeh, the dance
