Greetings from the critique Club!!
The composition of the portrait is lovely. The idea that her expression and placement convey is very interesting for the viewer. The editing in the hair makes it almost appear like lines of tiny dots. It is an interesting effect, one that the voters at DPC will either love or hate. The focus seems to be on her hair, taking away from her face. There is a lot of noise and pixilation in her face and the background, while it can be acceptable in the background, on her face it looks like a lot of green and brown spots. It looks like a small picture blown up very big. Fits the challenge perfectly. Overall, a nice portrait that encountered some promlems in post-processing.
Nice work and keep shooting!

| sorry but what I'm thinking is the editing is really hurting this shot |

| Way too much sharpening of what seems like an otherwise lovely casual portrait |

| This is grainy, overexposed and not clear at all. She has lovely hair and features and in the right light and with clear focus, this would really work. |

| This would be a great foto, but it is just very pixelated. |

| a little over-effected. forgive me if that was you intention. |

| I like the angle and how she is looking down. The title gives clues to what she's doing. I'm not sure if you were trying to pull off an over processed look on purpose, but it doesn't work for me. |

| Extremely oversharpened...? |

| ..Unless this is intentional.. seems a bit over-processed. the picture looks to have a great deal of potential, but way too grainy and pixelated. I onder if it's a compression issue? I'm still learning myself, so if I'm way off-base just disregard. |

| alot of jpeg artifacting going on here |

| I am so sorry, but I don't like whatever you did to this picture. She is so pretty and you can't really see her beauty for the noise in it. |

| This appears to be very over processed. |

| Unfortunately this comes across as very pixelated on my screen and overly sharpened. Too bad as she has a nice smile and expression. |

| Wow this is different, I love the hair it really grabs your into the photo. |

not a good effect.. looks like it was run through a thousand filters

| No posterization, crop just the 3/4 on the right and it's a great shot! |

| Over sharpened perhaps? Does change the appearance of the hair. |
|
|
|

| bit too far with the USM or way too much hairspray. |

| It looks way oversharpened. |

| I have no idea what you did to this picture.. but whatever it was.. it was too much! |
|
|
|
09/12/2005 10:08:14 PM |
| I'm not really sure what I'm seeing ... oversharpening, filter effects, or enlarged beyond the available data. |
|

| Way too over sharpened for my liking. It is a pity because I really think this could have been a lovely natural shot. I would recommend redoing it without so much sharpening as this photo would definately be a keeper. |
|

| Wow... something really nasty happened to the quality here. This would have been a decent shot had it not been so pixelized and odd-looking. |
|
|
|
09/12/2005 03:04:31 PM |
| Is this taken with a camera phone or was it deliberately manipulated to be pixelated so much? |
|

| The quality of the photo is really poor, but your composition is good. |

| Although I can't say I'm too fond of it, I appreciate your PP and artisitc creativity and courage with this one. The hair is quite cool though :-) |

| This image is so noisy, it hurts my ears. The compression artifacting is unattractive as well. You may optimize your filesize up to 150kb, try to preserve the quality and integrity of the original photo. |

| Way oversharpened, pity for such an attractive model.. |
|
|
|
09/12/2005 12:57:01 AM |
| WOW way way too much sharpening and processing. I would like to see this shot in a more natural state. |
|
|
|
09/12/2005 12:50:24 AM |
| Whew, I think way too much USM. Makes her hair look like it's steel strands. |
