She sure is in another world. Great presentation to go with her expression! Very good job in having everything a blur except her. Great story line in try to come up with what she is thinking.

I have a 12 year old daughter and straight away recognized that look on her face it tells a story all parents will relate to ,the rest of the picture is up to your usual high standards and needs no further comment

Great initial impact. Kids are wonderful to take pictures of... They have the innocents about them. Great in b/w. Centered and cropped nicely. Great DOF. Nice work. Thanks for sharing.

    You would probably have problems reading what the bottle said unless you know the Greek alphabet. It acually says Samaria. Samaria is a famous gorge in Crete. This bottle has contained water from this gorge. Thank you for the lovely review.

I too am taken with the expression on this one's face. I also like what you did in postprocess to really keep the focus on her. Nice image!

Perhaps the bottle brought her a memory. One also thinks she is concentrating hard wishing for a genie in the bottle.Or perhaps she is thinking what happened to the contents,either the liquid or the genie. I am thinking all these because she has not sat back in the sand. Good blur effects applied to bring focus on her and, probably, her object of focus. Good light, clarity and sharpness. Fine placement within the frame of both the subject and the object.

What a great job!

Great use of Black and white to create an old world feel. The white vignette helps to isolate the model...I love the storyline of the photo.

Great exposure, focus, lighting, DOF, everything!

Comment from marieann green


Double win. Both the girl and the scene are very moody. Captured a great facial expression. Good story telling possibilities here. Enjoyed

I like this one alot. I hope your coast lines are warmer than your Capital city...burr. The pose of the little girl and your capture of her and the bottle is nicely done and looks great in B&W and vignetting. I never would have thought of that kind of aritistic combination would be used at the beach, but nicely done.
