| very nice, very clear, nice color and the expression is great as well. I'm not entirely sold on the crop of her body, but I don't have any suggestions. |

| Nice shot of a beautiful model. Good DOF and the sharp brown eyes tones well with the hair. But I think it´s a litle overexposed and the skintones could be better. I could belive that someone would advice you to add a litle more sharpness but I´m not sure. You could try. |

yeah decent image. it is a little light, (her face is washed out and i don't see any blacks). ireally like the out of focus background which makes it very abstract. i agree on the placing of the image. perhaps if she was a little higher i would like it better.... but then again i don't mind it SO much now. it might work.
but i do feel it is too light.

| This is a very attractive composition which effectively captures a mood of anticipation/uncertainty/thoughtfullness in a small child. Two suggestions to improve it. First, yo have used depth of feild to blur the background - that's excellent but you've lost the focus on her hair, ears and clothing. Adjust the depth of field so that the subject is pin-sharp - that will turn a good image into something quite stunning. Second, the face and eyes are a bit washed out (too pale/white/overexposed). if you have photo editing software like photoshop Elements you could recover some of this by increasing the saturation. Best of all, decrease the xposure by a stop. When taking the photograph, bracket your exposures (take a couple under-exposed and a couple over-exposed. |

I like this shot....
improvements ?...I would try cropping a little off the left side of the picture..then converting to B/W which would take away the distraction of the background colours.
Overall it is a very good picture.

Posting a thumbnail linked to the larger image in your portfolio makes it easier for more people to view, and makes the forums more concise and easier to load.
If you're able to edit that it would be appreciated. There is help in the tutorials if you need assistance.
Thanks.

| I cropped it closer to her face all around, changed it to B&W and cloned out the blurry earing. I have no place to post it, PM me your email address if you want to see it. |

You have missed the point.
We have asked many times over that people post links or thumbnails.
Perhaps it matters not to you because you are not on dial up?

More tight crop and some Gaussian blur will make it more effective!

This version really makes her 'pop'! Nicely done.

yeah i do like how it looks in general too, or it makes her pop out, but i think that is TOO much blur.. it is a little distracting. .perhaps something in the middle.

Never said it didn't matter, I said I like the view, sorry for sharing an innocent opinion. The masses have been forewarned!

Rant: Frig, what's with all the attitude? It was a harmless statement. So yeah, as long as I'm happy in my dillusional little Lori-Land I guess that IS all that matters, thanks for pointing it out on an innocent thread that has nothing to do with me really other than asking my opinion.

I didn't make a resolution, however, I did take a picture and put a caption on it cause I had no more time. As for learning to listen, apparently people have that confused with 'bending over and taking one for the team'. |

I think Karen was just pointing out that there might actually be a team, and that they don't all suck this down a fat pipe... |
