Photo of the week Dec 13

What immediately drew my attention to it was the pattern of shadows which is immediately apparent in the tiny thumbnail. They make a beautifully balanced and dynamic image. If the photo were enlarged to fill a wall, it would draw the eye to it from hundreds of feet away. I think that is a very good criterion by which to judge a good picture!

I think the thing that makes it good is that it is so simple. I like the shoes, and I like how the shawdow makes a 4. Very neat, and very complex all the same.

That is a beautiful picture, because she has captured both the frozen ice and the shadow. It shows balance, even though it is cold ther is warmth in the glow of the sunlight. Nice innocent pic that says a lot.

I don't know. This one is okay to me, but I don't know that it screams out to me either. I like simple pics though...and maybe if we scrap the page and have a story to go with it, it would pull at me more.

Thats a nice picture. I didn't notice the 4 until it was pointed out but I think its pretty neat. Can I ask how old your daughter is? Her balance must be great because if that was me taking the picture, you would be seeing the sky.lol

That picture is adorable! I love it! I know it's simple, but it is sometimes the simplest statements that say so much. A picture is worth a thousand words, remember? :) Thanks for sharing this with us! ~Wyrdsister

your daughter has arts talent. i'm pretty sure she has reasons for taking this pic which interest me. i like the shadows :)

i love the shoes, thanks for the pictures.

I love it Tia. It speaks to me of balance. The sneakered feet standing on stiff leggs, willing them to keep the rest of the body upright.

I like it, it looks nice. I like the simplicity of it.

Great photo, love the depth that it shows, thank you for sharing

I think it's a fantastic photo! The shoes is what draws my attention. I love it. I think it speaks volumes and has a great simplicity in it too. It really captures a childs imagination I think.

Reminds me of winters up in Michigan. I miss snow, especially this time of year. Fake snow on a palm tree just doesn't cut it at all. Tell her to be careful though. I also remember what happens if you step wrong on that ice. Ouch! It looks like she's enjoying the winter, which is always good.

nice pict, how did she get that standing position while taking a pict of her self, anyway, its nice pict.

I really like it, too. I love the shadows and the details like the little ice crystals. How old is your daugher? She has quite an eye for photography.

No offence to your daughter as I think she's a great photograher, This picture just doesn't do anything for me. It's a pair of feet on ice. Wow? All you'd need to do is go to an ice skating ring and you could do the exact same thing. Sorry but feet aren't my thing and just don't intrest me.

Your daughter is good. She makes pictures into art...is she an aspiring photographer? If you liked my post, press the "+" button to the right of this post. Thanks!

wow... the photo looks great.

wow when I saw the picture it gave me an experience of what she felt at that moment of standing on the ice! Thank you for sharing that wonderful experience of love!

More interesting picture is left one..not the snow!So that`s you brokentia?!? Say yes.
