Hey David. I scored this image an 8 and it is one of my top 5 picks for the challenge. While it is not a pure librodo shot I felt you caught some key elements. Great colors without being too saturated. Nice angle with the scarf coming across her face and a good match between the scarf colors and her eyeshadows. Other aspects I liked is the square crop (use as much space as is allowed), a pleasing edit on her face without going overboard (love that the skin tones are soft but not removed) and i like that you have caught good white space around her pupil. Couple of things I may have tweaked - one is her pupils. A bit of dodging and sharpening to bring out the pupil patterns would have been nice. Not too crazy but enough to be able to see them better. I probably would have cloned out the nose ring. No issues with nose rings, but because this one is in the shadows it just looks like this bright spot. Woudl I mistake this for a librodo shot? No. But i feel you caught significant aspects of his style well and ended up with a very pleasing image. I am very curious as to how this one is scoring.

Top quality - one of my 10s
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/17/2011 11:04:24 AM
Beautiful photo. Vibrant but calm if that makes sense. I like that you left the detail of her skin. It makes this so much more alive. Nice!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/17/2011 08:55:49 AM
translated, i guess. Nakikita ka means you are seen, which makes a very weak title. The stronger title would have been "I can see you" which translates to Nakikita kita.

Nice colors, good details and contrast. Beautiful shot.

What an exotic beauty. Love the nose stud to pull our eye to the more shadowy side of her face. Technically - superb.
