Looks like Northern California. Paso Robles area. You should have cloned out the power tower. Beautiful shot.

Very pretty face. The focus is a bit strong on the right side of the shot. It needs a bit more contrast to it and the lighting is hazy and has no pop. The composition is great and like I said she is very pretty.

Kinda tough for me to critique this one. I really liked this photo when I first seen it. Very deep and powerful. This shows amazing initiative and creativity. It looks like a very well thought out shot. Everything about this shot works for me. Focus, lighting and composition all seem to be perfect. The only thing I can find wrong would be his eyes could have stood out a bit more. Again this is a tough critique for me because I like it so much.

Nice creativity. Shows some thought and initiative. The colors are very warm and soft. The lighting is great it works well with the colors you chose. I would have nixed the masquere on her bottom eyelid to show off more of her brown eyes. The focus is great you captured her eyes and beautiful complextion. Composition is very nice nothing distracting or over powering except the subject. Congrats nice job.

It may fall short of a portrait but wow what a nice shot. The composition is great everything flows so nice here. My eyes flow nicely from one side to the other. The colors are awesome here. Their contrast here is amazing. The blues clash so nice with the yellows and the way the yellow transitions to her red lips carrying the blue from the sky was very well done. Focus is great. You seemed to pick up her eye and the spill in a way that really holds the shot together. Lighting could have been toned down just a bit. The left side could have been a bit darker. It looks almost to be blown out. But that doesn't hurt the photo at all. It's still a very impressive shot.

The contrast is incredible but, some of the whites are a little blown out. Not too harmful though. The motion is great and I hope you thanked her. It really adds some depth to what may have been just an ok shot. Composition is really good. It's nice she didn't wind up dead center. Creativity is A+ it seems like a well thought out shot and not just a last minute attempt at a submission. Nicely done.

Great creativity. The colors contrasting with each other are very appealing. There are a couple of problems though. The focus is lost somewhere on the leaf and should have been on the insects. Rule of thirds would have helped. Maybe a crop with the insects farther from the center would have been better. Lighting is a bit flat and could have been improved with flash to bring out the details a bit better in the black insect. Over all it is a very nice attempt. I hope they haven't gone too far and wouldn't mind asnother attempt.
