Just a Small Smile

Landscape cropped portraits work better with eyes following the rule of thirds or more negative space. Also the background is too busy here. Great idea to use the blue jewel with her blue eyes, but the cropping on the bottom does not seem ideal... would be better if there was a blue bubble on the left side of the necklace as well.

Great combination of textures, patterns and colours. Also the hand adds an interesting "plus" to the photo, I like this one.

Nice girl. This would work better if you cropped it tighter on the top. Also the harsh shadows caused by the flash are distracting.

This extreme style and make-up looks very-very familiar to me. ;-) Great capture of emotions and extraordinarity!

Wonderful backlighting, would do well in multiple light sources as well! Adorable the expression on her face.

Great texture and colour scheme. I love the metal against the flower petals(are they flower petals?). Top 10 image for me, although, no people using their mobiles are on the photo.

This is my favourite in this challenge so far and my pick for a ribbon! The expression, the composition, the colours and the lighting are great as well as the photo on the wall. Good opposite point just as colour scheme, subject and mood. You hit me! ;-) (9)

I love the colours and lighting here, however, I hate the border. It ruins a lot on the value of the photo (it has an RGB computer feeling which does not match the atmosphere of a crystal ball and future predictions). I would have added no border to this one at all, or I would have added a 1 pixel wide black and 15 pixel wide white around.
