Too much stone wall, not enough ballerina for me. Would have liked to have seen a tighter crop. Lighting looks good though!

I wonder how this would look if it were cropped in a bit more from the right hand side? This would take the subject out of the center, which for me, makes photos a bit more interesting. I do like how she has a pretty white tutu against the dirty, gritty background.

The subject is too central. There is too much space around her and I'm not getting a good look at her. I like the idea of a somewhat out of place ballerina. A tighter crop and slightly different composition with hernot in the center would have amde for a very nice image. 5

nice picture, but needs more light brought into the subjects face. i think this shot might be downgraded for not cropping tightly around her face, which isn't necessarily a requirement, but i think for this to be considered a portrait, you need to really highlight the model's face. currently, i think her eyes are too dark and just sink into her face, removing any expression that could have been interpreted. a shame, because the background is lovely, and the model has a lot of potential. I'd try to reshoot this with a light reflector to get some more natural lighting. 5/10

I love the pose. I wish it were a little closer to the subject to reveal more of her face. I also am unsure about the background, it seems so noncongruous with a ballerina. I like it and I don't like it...7

Elegant shot, the looks seems so focused.

This is an interesting image though it looks like the wall might be in better focus than her face.

I like the way her lovely dress contrasts with the background. Great portrait.

What a beautiful photo. I love the way her delicate, feminine beauty contrasts with the old, dingy brick wall. Really a great job.

I like the full body portrait...nice job.

your background is not straight and is very distracting from your beautiful ballerina.

Nice contrast of the gracefulness of the dancer with the harsh "industrial" appearance of the background. A little different of a crop would've pleased me more but nicely done shot.

I like the softness of her en pointe with the tutu against the craggy concrete floor and stone wall. I wish she were larger in the shot so I could concentrate on her pretty face. This is more of an entire body shot than what I think of as a true portrait. Still, it is very well shot and you did a good job. 7

Beautiful. She's kind of far away though...perhaps could crop a little more on the right and bottom.

very nice...ballerinas rock!

I like this just for the reason that she looks out of place in that setting. That makes it interesting. Good pic.
