What a great shot! I don't get to dpc much anymore, and it seems that I am missing out on seeing some superb photography, such as this. Can't believe this didn't place, it's certainly a winner.

Just wanted you to know I thought you had me all the way for the blue. I picked you for top shot the second I saw the thumbnail. Great job. I think you got robbed not making the top three!

P.S. That's not to say I don't think the other ribbon winners didn't deserve it. LOL

ooh.. very cool composition and crop..

Such a classic shot. One of my favorites from the challenge. Like everything about this especially those curles. The shot has this slight soft glow to it (which I do like), I think some of the hot spots could've been a bit toned though. Like the one on the hand, doesn't fit in well and is a bit distracting. This one should do very well in the challenge. Good luck! :)

Nice photo, the green and the red really work well together. I also like the several pops of red, they sure add excitement to the very well done shot.

01/16/2007 04:46:18 PM
I think this is an excellent image the red does ir for me it lifts the composition
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2007 07:43:01 AM
one of my ribbon picks -- like the use of red (lips, hair, nails) to highlight the feminine, well composed
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2007 06:44:40 AM
Great pic. I love the lipstick and nails.

Very slick image so I'm guessing a guy shot this. :P
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful presentation of a neat concept. One of my two tens for this challenge. A great visual talent here for being feminine and masculine at once, without being androgynous.

10 - Worthy of a first place finish.
A bit of burn on the hand is all I could think of to improve this image.

nice. great concept

I really like the colors and sharpness of this picture. It's a unique idea however the light on her hand is kind of blown and it took me a while to be able to see her cigar because it was too dark. There is great color and lighting in this picture that's just one picky thing from me hahaha.

Gorgeous image. I love it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/15/2007 03:13:32 AM
Very nice. My only complaint would be that the hand is a little washed out. Some might complain about the shadows in the hair, but I like the darkness.

That red really adds to the composition. It makes it more intense. Good concept, and really good execution.
