•  Info Back to the tunnel of São Martinho do Porto, Portugal. Which hand has my daughter in the air? (not a candidate!) Everything by Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:40, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Composition not that great (head cut off by horizon), besides you've already done this better. --Dori - Talk 01:20, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Your daughter silhouet is beautiful! Yet I agree with Dori about the image. IMO the other picture is much more powerful composition wise. In the nominated image there also is an interesting element that I like. I mean the camera your daughter has. You asked "Which hand has my daughter in the hair" Did you mean "air" and not "hair"? If you ment air, I'd say she has the left hand up, but I'm guessing only because you asked :) --Mbz1 (talk) 04:45, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
  • Thanks, Mila. Of course, I meant "air"! This is just a challenge to the deductive power of the reviewers, not a real candidate! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 07:08, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
• (off topic)  Question What camera is she carrying? Ben Aveling 09:53, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
  •  Info - She is carrying a Konica Minolta Dimage A200 (my old camera) -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
    • It's always nice when children are interested in what interests their parents.  Comment As for which hand, I'd guess the right hand - the foot that is on the right hand side of the picture seems to be facing away from us, suggesting she has her back to us, suggesting the hand in the air is the right hand. If that isn't her left foot, and she is heading towards us, then she's stepping forwards, straight legged and twisting and holding her hand up all at the same time - which feels a bit strained.
