Lisa, Natalie, She-she and Suzy - thanks for the wonderful comments! I really needed the feedback because I've been in kind of a photo low :) this week so thank you! And Suzy, thank you for your wonderful words - I just found out I'll need to resubmit this if I want it to be eligible for the contest! I had deleted an image early and then submitted this one and I just found out you can't do that! Oh well, I'm learning a lot! #2459415

I'm so glad you entered this - let me know when you resubmit it b/c I don't want to miss it. This is a great image and story of strength and survival. I'm so happy for you that you preserved a memory for her to remind her of her strength. Great job!

This is a lovely lovely portrait of someone with a story. Your effects and lighting are great - I think you should re-submit for this months 'inspiration' category - maybe someone will notice it!! Loved your gallery :) #3675843
