JUDGE'S
COMMENTS:
This
is a very good attempt, I wish I could see a little glimpse
of her face. It is however, well framed.
Timeless.
Beautiful use of color and composition. Liked the framing through
the windows. Light and angelic.
A
graphic image with nice color. It has the feeling of an impressionist
painting.
