Well done

Good shot... and good story/poem.

She hasn't..... One very close to it... but not this one.

Haven't I saw this picture before??

Very nice, I like the DOF and clarity of droplets and reflection/distortion on them

great shot

this is a great photo....great quality, great depth of field, great subject....but not sure about "awwwwe cute"

Lovely photograph.

Congrats on 1st Place Win

Congratulations

Congratulations, well deserved, this must be the highest score I have seen in the photo section.

Nice shot ! I like the light on the veil !

loved the face expression

Best points for (at least, for me) the best shot !!!

Awesome shot, love this = )

The clarity on this is amazing and it is GREAT except one thing....It is not black and white. I checked it out and there are reds, yellows, and magentas in there big time.

I have been doing photography since the early 60th. So even though I don't do my own prints from film anymore, believe me I have done plenty of film processing and printing.

Well I think Dimitris summed it up best so what more can we say?

Beautiful shot, and a perfect chioce for selective colouring too. Awesome.

Good mood! GL

this is a lovely shot of your friend, but a fashion shot should accentuate the clothes (or whatever) and you can't see the shirt real well here

great shot

Nice photograph, but if you seriously want to be a photographer, you will have to find a way to avoid dust.

Absolutely stunning, If I hadn't seen Karaflazz comment I would have thought it was one of his,

Nice hobby I mean really nice hobby

So powerful portrait.
So many emotions / feelings in one photo.
Perfect crop / skin tones / lighting / expression / look.
Words are not enough...
One of the best portraits i have EVER seen!

Congrats

Congrats for 1st

I love the idea, but something isn't quite right, it's flat rather than soft. IMO

great shot, you are lucky to have such locations and good friends nearby.

Yay dirt on the face...great image

Sounds like you might want to move somewhere that's actually been civilized. Actually, I like the background here, It's a nice shot.

Aaaw - throw the ball

great shot

great shot and that's a fantastic picture .... Allz Faithfully for you !

Great shot! I really like how the dog is positioned in such a way that it isn't hit with the strong sunlight. I would suggest though that maybe a higher shutter speed would be better for this kind of shot because backlighting is a bit too bright and distracting and I personally think water droplets in stop motion look better than in blurred motion. Good job though!

Nice shot.

Congrats on a beautiful photo!!

This is very beautiful!! Wonderful photo!

Thanks, a really great photo.

WOW, this photograph is stunning, it evokes a mood, I love it!

nice

Wonderful shot, any chance of a high res, I know I would vote higher.
