I'm sorry to hear about your father, Michelle... The comments you've left here are very telling and personal, and I hope this image holds special memories for you to cherish.

Great colours and a really cool grittiness to the shot, wish there was a little more contrast for drama but still the shot has this spooky almost creepy atmosphere to it. It would make a good cover for a Stephen King book and title as well. It would make me pick up the book and read it!

Comment by Ivory:
You are definatley developing a style, I like the concept and the unique perspectives your images have like they are always trying to tell a story rather than just being a piture of something. I like the grittiness of the shrubs in front of her and the muted red colour, I wish she was more defined by perhaps light focused on her to bring more drama to the shot and while leave her still hidden but also more the focal point.

Comment by Ivory:
I like the crop and the pose, I think the lighting is a little to strong here mostly on the hair making it lose detail, I do like the effect of the lighting on the face but I think the detail needs to be a bit sharper here as well even with the high key lighting. A bigger catch light in the eyes and a little more light play there would make her eyes sparkle and come alive.

Comment by Ivory:
Great concept for this shot and again good composition, the lighting gives it a sort of surreal feeling. I wish you couldn't see the hair band part of the devil horns but thats just a small point and perhaps you wanted that to show.

Wow, I thought that was really cool. Looked just like an old poster of a pin up girl. I really thought this would do much better.

Sometimes you just have to scratch your head, then move on to the next contest.
