The winner of the "Fingerprint" challenge…

This weeks guest judge: 

Jess from: irocksowhat
This weeks challenge: Fingerprint.
The challenge: The challenge will be based around your children. We’ve done this challenge before… And, I really loved it. Lets do it again! Take or find a photo of your baby (or kid… or puppy… or kitty) fingers or toes. Or both!

•   1st: Captivus Living.

Why Jess chose this photo: “I LOVE THIS PICTURE! It’s so sweet. I love how the shot is taken at the child’s level, her curious face, and the beautiful countryside. I love how the father is teaching her how to pinky swear (because this is a serious and important lesson that all children must learn).“

Congrats! Please feel free to grab a “fact: I’m awesome … #1 winner” button below. Because: you ARE awesome! And, thank you SO much for participating! (I know you already have one of these! You’re so good.)

• 2nd: A Pile of Pics.

Why Jess chose this photo: “So random and totally unconventional. Very much my style. I really appreciate how the cake and the hand is really the important focus here.”

• 3rd: Not Always Picture Perfect.
  

Why Jess chose this photo: “To me this is beautiful. It really represents motherhood/sisterhood/womanhood. The legs and toes and feet and hands seem endless.”

4th: A Sorta Fairytale.

Why Jess chose this photo: “When I look at little Bennett’s hand it seriously reminds me of an actual KID. I mean, he’s growing up so fast. I love the colors and the fact that he is simply placing his hand in his mother’s palm. So very sweet.“

• 5th: Life with the Lyngs.

Why Jess chose this photo: “Great shot! Again, nothing really needs to be in focus here except for the hand, and the photographer did just that. It’s really great to see how he’s controlling his hand, yet completely enthralled by the fish.”

Congrats to the top 5 winners! Great job, and please feel free to grab the top 5 button below! You’re all awesome!
