• naughty mini-crop ... purely because she's so tight to the right edge ... You've got that diagonal to the bottom right well sorted, and the framing here is great. Love the obscured 'look', and the yellow lines coming in from the left. This looks like something from the 1950s! - kate mellersh (come to a halt)

    Oh I like the skipping girl. Lovely 50s retro look to her, maybe that's a combination of old style skipping rope and knitwear and bunches and slightly faded colour of the image. Gorgeous, anyway.

    OMG... this is adorable! I love the composition & how the little rabbit matches her sweet sweater =) Too cute Vanessa!

    I love the muted tones of the gray and blue, how the handles and the jumper match, how it says "LOOK" and she is looking off into the open end of the triangle the lines are forming, her hair in her face indicating wind. There is so much going on in this photo, yet it's so subtle. Amazing work!

    Oh, I remembered the Hasselblad talking:

    File0001

    I think it was a Hasselblad, might have been a Leica M6 or Nikon FM2. There were more cameras in that studio I can remember (for obvious reasons), but I'm pretty sure it was taken with a hasselblad.
