I like the additional warmth and strength the sepia tone adds to this already strong image.

OK Anni, I think this is my favorit shot in your portfolio (to date). I love the POV and the softness you've captured here. My husband would look at this and say "Moooooo", I love how he does that to every cow.
This is a keeper. Too bad it didn't fit into a challenge, it should have a high score.

Very striking, Anni. This is a beautiful photo. It's amazing how colors just pop without the sun.

Nice work. The contrast between their shapes is very nice, yet their color tie them together. I like that there is slightly more space at the top than at the bottom. That keeps it from feeling quite so "centered" and thus static as a composition.

It is well lit and well focused. Mirrors are bears to focus in. Something about how the camera actually tries to focus on the back of the glass, no the image reflecting or something like that. I'm not sure how to get the reflection razor sharp (though at first glance, it is focused well enough to not be distracting, I think), but I have found if I can use as big an aperture number as possible, and not get horrendous glares on the glass, sometimes that helps.

It is a challenging shot, but you pulled it off well. Congrats on the good score.

If I need to further clarify or explain myself, please feel free to ask.
