I wanted to thank you for this picture. My sister died when she was 30 leaving behind a 7 year old girl, Hallie. One week later her father had a girl that had been staying next door move in with him. They got married quickly. There is more to how and why she died that's very questionable. Anyway, Hallie's new stepmother was schizo and beat and abused Hallie a lot until Hallie left at 18 years old, which is what my sister had done. My family didn't know this because we couldn't stand her dad and never went up to see them. Hallie's around 35 now and asks me basically why we didn't 'save' her. My stepfather doesn't want my mother to see her or me even now. I think this picture might wake my mother up. Hallie for years would visit her mother's grave and leave notes and necklaces made from little flowers. Thank you extremely.

Ive just noticed that the bunny's expression looks as though it is being tickled to death, or pehaps crying......nice touch.....was it planned?

This is truly great! I completely love the washed-out look. It makes it look old, worn, or maybe printed in a newspaper... The cemetery is perfect, including the broken cross, and the girl's pose, dress and bunny are all... well, perfect, what else can I say.

I didn't think global low contrast could be used so well... thank you for opening my eyes to this! (I would have never left a histogram not touching the black point... till now )

Aah! Great model.. you are lucky dont think any one of the small-size-people I know would pose for me like this..
the blond hair, the bunny doll, dress with flowers, summer day..
almost sounds like a cliche
BUT it is totaly not cuz the doll is on a beautiful abandoned graveyard..
totaly love the concept.. everyone has forgotten this place except for this litle child..who.. lost someone she loved a lot..
shiny beautiful day..with a sparkle of sadness..
love it!

tisk tisk eli ....didnt your mother ever tell you not to stare at the sun?
the actual photo is pretty cool, but added contrast would really add alot,
the direct sunlight kinda messes with things, a trick you can use (and should) in this kinda situation is to hold something over(above the lense not blocking it) the camera so the lense is shaded (from light rays). you ever noticed how all the hard core cameras and film cameras have that black bit on the end of the lense that extends from the glass? ...same idea , reduces glare, if you can make anysense of that then cool meh.. i could explain more but ill restrain myself for the moment , hope my tip comes in handy if ive confused you just ask
i really like the idea and such of the composition, its really emotive how the girl is kinda looking down saddly at the foot of the grave stone.

and the bunny is so cool
