Exellent job with shadows and lighting. Attractive subject. Very nice skin tone, and seemingly perfect focus. The only complaint I have is that the face seems mishaped due to the hair and shoulder shadows covering it. Great job one of my top 10 picks.

Very fun and interesting photo to look at. the glass has a very metalic look to it. I get a strong alien feel. I think the tree in the backgroung interfears with the emotion of the shot. But only slightly. Still one of my top 10. great work.

The photo is too over exposed. It definately could have used more lines, if you were going for an artistic pen and ink type look. As is I cant see enough details to tell me what it is I'm looking at.

Until I saw this shot I was convinced that humans were the only thing that looked good in B&W. Great detail and definition throughout the photo. This is a very crisp and poerfull image. Proving me to completely wrong in my earlier assumptions. One of my top picks. Great Job!

Great b&w shot. I like the lighting and the smooth apearance of the skin. This is also one of the sharpest images of the challenge.I feel you chose well in your cropping of the this shot and the covering of the scarf. Its makes it a very teasing photo. Great job

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

To start I think this is an excellent image.
After looking at it for a while and allowing my eyes to wander around the photo I can however see a few minor things I don't care for. First it dosn't "feel" like septenber. Perhaps. its because for me september meens it starting to get cold, and fall colors. I see alot of warm summer green in this shot. Perhaps a warmer month for the title would have been more beleivable. Second I feel this would have looked a little better if it had been shot in the morning or afternoon giving is a slightly softer feel. The only other thing I can see that I dont care for in this photo is the little pink flowers in the background. At first I thought it was a person or somthing else in red standing behind the bushes. Perhaps making the color on those a little quiter would help.

As for positive aspects on this shot there are many. This photo is very sharp almost too sharp the background around the tree trunk seems to be almost a little over sharpened. I feel you captered the spray of the white water very well. You focal legnth is perfect. It has lots of colors and lines for the eye to follow. It is also busy enough to enjoy for more than the usual 10 seconds. However it's not so busy that it confuses me or draws away from the beautifull little waterfall.

very pretty shot.

Great shot definately one of my top picks. The only complaint I have with this photo is I want to see more of it. Iess of a crop would have made me happy. Otherwise I have no complaints. Great lighting and shadows. Good contrast of skin on fur. The way the coat is being pulled up close and the bare tree is the backgroung ad a real sence of realism to the photo. great job.
