Congratulations to the winner from Czech Republic who has won $984.00. It's a super close-up portrait of a beautiful, red haired, freckly girl - or soon to be 'young lady'. Lighting is very important for good portrait shots. In this photo keeping direct sun light off the face, but using it to highlight the hair works well.

Thank you to everyone who entered one of the 242 entries, and thank you to the judge Lisa Alessandra Kutzelnig.

In this part of the blog entry I choose a photo that wasn't chosen by the judge, but I think is up there with the best photos and deserves a mention. This is another beautiful portrait shot. The light reflecting in the eyes and the funny expression makes this an attention-grabbing photo.
