shoeshop princess

Beautiful. Did you put the "halo" behind her head? I think it works. Well done! Is that a band aid on her knee?

Thank you Jeff yes it is. I didnt remove it I think it was amusing detail. I added the halo not to have the head disapearing in the dark background, Jean

I love the bandage on the knee. Nice picture.

I had to look twice before I even suspected you had fixed the halo.

 

Another great piece from you Jean. You are inspiring me to be more creative in my pursuits.

Thank you for any comment and rating.

The band-aid adds realism to the compo. The white dress makes a strong contrast wiht her skin color. Really nice.

A great composition full of childish fun; the bright new shoes, the plaster and the under-knee scratch. I also enjoy the contrast between her shoes and those in the window and between the window light and the shop entrance. Well observed again.

I agree the band-aid shows realism...very good capture..and I like the idea with the halo...well done!

The first thing I thought when viewing the thumbnail was "whoa...severe dodging halo." I do agree that it probably wouldn't work for her hair to blend into the background, but you should spend some more time making the background adjustment more subtle. I like the title and framing...I myself might be considered a "shoe princess."

I'm not sure if I'm being affected by those comments before me, but now that I know that the halo is fake, it looks quite unnatural. Perhaps it should be made more subtle. Maybe a softer halo, and a little darker?

I like the colors of pic. Is there bright light

behind the girl?

Very amusing and cute !

Vous avez un magazin de chaussures, je commence a croire ?...

Ok, yes, the halo doesn't look very natural, but to me it can be seen as an advantage... The shoeshop is this girl's wonderland after all... :-)

Quelle délicieuse photo ! le halo est une excellente idée pour mettre en valeur la belle couleur noire de jais de la chevelure de la petite fille. Bravo !

A nice delicate photo, but I think a gentle 'aura' would have seperated her head from the background

with less distraction than the halo.

Keep up the good work!

Very smart photo. I like your work very much.

Peace,

Zo

Great shot, even though I don't like the halo around her, that obvious manipulation can't kill my enthusiasm for the photo. Really nice work.

I think this is a great, thoughtful composition...

Very fine composition. A perfect combination.
