Nice picture, Shane. Great contrast of violent colors of her clothes and grave colors in background. I also like her expression.

Aux States le concept synthéthique "Mountain" (Appalachian ou autre ) comporte une grande richesse de connotations sociologiques et psychologiques. Cette photo illustre bien ce concept !de plus il est clair que la qualité de l'exposition et du piqué contribuent à la bonne impression que fait d'emblée cette PHOTO non denuée cependant d'imperfection notamment de cadrage !
Attendons de voir si l'artiste parlera aussi fort que son CANON EOS10D ce qui nous réserve de belles émotions
notamment en cas de suite à la série "Mountain " ! ?

Splendid!! The muted tones are really killer, but that expression, slightly peeved, impatient maybe. The clothes are so whimsical and so real - she looks like I imagine I looked once and will look again when I get old and don't care what people think of me anymore. :) Could be even stronger if there was more room on her right, placin gher according to the rule of thirds, especially if that sweeping hill goes up with more grasses - nice textures there. Well done!

Very very nice. A beatiful little girl in a wild country. The way she dresses makes me think of the "peace and love" period in the 60's. The softness of the image fits well with the subject.
I would have preferred a panorama view with the gird placed at the left instead of a portrait mode with the subject so centered.

A perfect shot. I like the expression of the girl and the way how her colorful clothes contrast with the "green" around.

Very nice pic, the expression of the little girl is so sweet. At the first sight I thought of Scotland. The vivid colors of her clothes make a nice contrast with the landscape.
Congratulations Shane.

Beautiful. You've given us a timeless pic here. The colours on the girl contrast nicely with the bland colours of the background.
If you activate your Workshop Feature I'll try to bring out some of the colours (which are a touch washed out). Send me a message if you open up the WS feature...

Quite a nice location portrait. The colors seem a bit muted, but it could be the grey sky. No I just read your notes and see that you were heading for this look. I think you know more about post-processing than I Shane. I should be asking you questions.
At first glance I thought this was taken in Europe.

Beautiful candid portrait. She looks to be thinking hurry, which gives the photo a sense of motion. The PS work is wonderful.

One of the best on this site...however, it has the best attitude ever shown here. Don't really know what to say..really good concept, and again -- great attitude she has.
Made a ws, as a suggestion..
