"Uncapsulated" (I may come back with a better title later)
Awesome job! Very beautifully done.

I have a couple people on my Instagram feed that may have shared with me too many glass sphere shots, but I must admit the lone tree is nice.

Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that contributes well to the challenge

I like your lovely natural light mono portrait Cole, it is very accomplished. However, I also have reservations about the right eye, it looks unnatural because there is by contrast too much light falling on her iris, it is too bleached which unfortunately is often associated with the look of visual impairment or blindness. It's such a shame because the rest of the portrait works really well and although its such a seemingly minor fault it has a significant impact on the end result. The high score and placement serves to confirm what a strong image the rest of it is, well done.

Very nice offhand portrait, though my guess is that it's posed. She has a pleasant, dreamy look, kind of like Vermeer's "Girl Withe a Pearl Earring." I like how she's lit from the back and left, leaving the illusion that we're privy to a peek behind the brilliance. The composition is quite nice, filling the frame and offering a dark natural border. Fine image.

Nice, sharp, nice pose. Too bad her right side eye is blurry. 7 from me

Flawless in so many ways, but something very weird is going on with her right, OOF eye... It's as if the eye's white is the same tone as the skin, so there's like a blinder or a wall there, a physical obstruction, very jarring to me :-(

I am about half way through the entries, and I have finally come to an entry that uses natural light to enhance the portrait.

I want just a bit more depth of field - better focus and maybe a tad less light on her right eye. Gave this a 9 but really wanted to give it a 10.

Really nice, I love the texture on her face and the composition. One of my favourites!
