This is a great photo. It deserved a much better score- I hate to even say this but I bet if that had been an American flag you would have made it to the top ten. We Americans are very narrow minded, self centered and tend to forget that the rest of the world exists. Especially these days - I suspect that DPC is over half from the US. Again, this is a really great photo.

Nice big eyes.

Great shot of a beautiful girl! It's an interesting expression -- I don't know quite what she's trying to say with that look :)

you've really captured those eyes good color

Enter your comment here, and then cast your vote... Or lady liberty. Is there a reason it was cropped this way? Pretty shot but my mind's eye sees it as incomplete. And I can't tell you why.

Yep she's a beauty alright. A very nice photo, you can be proud of. Could I use her as a model too please :-)

This is an excellent photo! I like the models focus and the way you created the pose. The flag colors are vivid with only a liltle bleeding from the lighting. At first the light appears harsh but upon close study it only enhances the photo. Great Shot!!! 9 ... Cub

A softer expression would have been better, she looks startled. Nice picture otherwise. 7- Martin

Your subject looks like she is walking into the wind. If this isn't a shot for an Icelandic tour guide I don't know what is.

Good color, focus and composition. The use of the flag is inspired.

Nice, vivid colors!

This picture needs less cropping. ;)

So Iceland is green and Greenland is icy huh?
Well the photo is great! Nice Job!

Hello Arnit :)
I did some shoots in my evening class studio last night and was inspired by some of the photos you have taken of this model before.
I do like this shot, and it is from above, but it doesn't say as much to me as the more emotive ones I've seen from you before.

Really nice shot. Love the pose, the hair and look in eyes especially. The crop, doesn't get any better than that, unless of course, you went down, but that may not have been appropriate. The fag is great. The lighting could be a little better. Overall, a great shot, one of the best this week.

Beautiful colors and sharpness

beautiful composition :) This is a great shot... the color is excellent and the pose is phenomenal also... great work :) - setzler

Very nice photo, I like it a lot. Great focus and color, and I love the flag in the background. Just one complaint, the lighting on the nose, left eye, and that area of her face isn't quite right. There is a little glare and it's a little too bright. Good luck!
