I like this but there are really black spots in the left hand top and in her hair in two spots that take away from the picture, in my opinion.

I was just going to ask the same questions. beautiful shot.

This is wonderful, great shot!

... I knew the shot had to be yours, author!

What is the big blotchy thing in the middle of the sand? Do you have a high res?

lookin so precious n vulnerable..........simply luv it.

similar titles in two entries give away your identity.

author, did I say anything about that..........no,.........I just said it looked like film.........chill out!!

Lovely

well done

any chance of a High res?

Isn't contempt a form of anger anyway?

this looks like an old pic, and I am guessing it is on film too.

sorry author, but this does not convey anger and fury. IMO, it conveys contempt.

She kind of looks like she's going to crap her pants. Nice shot! GL!

I have a mixed reaction to this picture. On the one hand I like the set up and subject but the patterning on the hi-res image detracts from the image so much that I cannot enjoy it.

Really Soulful

Really Soulful

Really jean and you commenting on that sure does help.
Y'all need to layoff with negative commenting.
It does absolutely no good to say this.

ooops, a real baby... at first glance it seemed a very realistic doll to me

So cute, the only thing I would think about for next time it to make sure you can see the babies face, only because I feel like he can't breathe. I know he can, but it just looks that way.

Beautiful shot, and what a handy tripod. I remember the 'golden light' that used to backlight my dogs, it was magical.

Precious! what an incredible shot.

Do you have a high res?

Lovely just a shame it's so pixaleted.

Lovely

Looks a little too over processed for me.

I first thought it was very noisy, but I think it's a scanned photo that has been pushed a little too far.

Congratulations for this and your other placings in this week contests

Cuteee

We were very close in the voting. Congrats on placing.

baguette et bordeaux?....

Can't go wrong quoting Louis Armstrong

Being on theme is a matter of opinion and I don't see this as off theme. But don't tell me you think the damage to the left side of the image makes it more artistic like noise does? Looks like an old photo that was damaged or maybe damage to your negative. You're going to defend film no matter what, aren't you?

I just think this image would have looked nicer if you fixed a few of the blemishes. (healing brush)But that's also IMO...

Was this an image you had online and resized? Just wondering because it looks a little pixelated in high res. But definitely an on theme entry. GL!

"dang this angel business, these wings are just too darned heavy".............

excellent capture, perfect lighting, dof, all...........well done.

O gee this should be a mastercard ad! It's priceless!

Agree with you Dawg

Nice one..

But why did you answer in french author? I think bellissimo is italian, haha

I use matte prints for pics alot. Most often when restoring old photographs.
Nice shot

looks like a film cam shot . Nice mood and great colors Author.

Nice shot good mood, to me this is backlight IMO

I agree the noise is fine good luck Author and it is nice to see that someone still uses film.
Makes me want to break out my canon eos 650 again>
