Deep in thoughtby Elvis_LComment by DrAchoo: I like the nice tight crop. It doesn't look like too many people gave you the "it's outside and not in a studio so it does not qualify".
I gave this a 6. My one issue when I originally saw it is that it does not look like she is looking at the flower. Even if she did it would be a problem because then she'd be quite cross-eyed. But with her not looking at them, I wondered why they were there.
The picture needs a boost on the levels. I pulled it into photoshop and a boost of 0/1.03/214 did a good job. It blows out the flower more, but since this is advanced, you can mask the flower off so it isn't affected. The increase gives her face more life.
Contrast is a generally good thing, but in portraits I find contrast quickly makes the person look harsh. You have a good level here. Perhaps some mild unsharp mask to make it a little sharper. We are quite used to very sharp images on DPC and that may have helped a bit too. I tried 100%/0.3/1 and it looked a bit better. Message edited by author 2006-04-24 19:30:13. |

Deep in thoughtby Elvis_LComment by yanko: I really like how her face fills most of the frame. Would have loved it better if she was looking into the camera so those eyes would open up more. |
