This is an awesome shot. I really like the tones here and the peacefulness of the shot.

Cant belive I was the only one who gave it a 10, its perfect in its unperfection the unperfection being the little things that are bugging some people like the thing around here But I agree with Jacko, I think it makes the shot, This was highly underrated, Keep up the good work, look forward to see more stuff from you :)

Two things: 1) It's tilted to the right. Looks like she is going to slide right off the end of the bench. 2) You should have cropped it a little so the frame is more portrait. That would fit better with the person and also not show the ends of the bench. The B&W/Sepia is nice.

This works well in b/w as it helps to isolate the subject from the background.
You have a nice tonal range in the image as well.

Very nice calm looking situation. Nice Capture. I might have brought the levels just a little bit on the bushes behind your subject to throw a little more emphasis on the person as a whole. The bright legs and arms stand out nicely in this shot. The dark top goes well against the bench but seems to disappear along with the subjects hair around bushes. Still an well composed shot.

Nice "human scene" and use of B & W. I think it could be improved with straightening and more of a central theme of interest. No real focus for me.

To my eye, you've taken this slightly too far in contrast, and certainly in the decision not to rotate the shot to keep the bench horizontal. There are areas where the light is entrancing - around the left leg of the bench for example, but otherwise it seems to bluntly a dull portrait.

I love this picture, got some great mood in it and I like the high contrast in it too, I gave it a top score! and I just noticed it has the same title as my last entry :-)

Feels like the exposure balance between foreground and background is a bit off. I think tilting the image would also improve it a bit.
