Great idea for a pic - I wanted to get everyone at NYC GTG together for a group shot with EACH of our cams on timers to submit for SP, but I just didn't get it done - this is a similar idea and I love both shots. Excellent stuff. |

Awwwwwwwwwwwwe! This is adorable (it all makes so much more sense to me once I've seen 'holding him". They make an interesting set of photos together. Great job. |

That's exactly what a self-portrait should do, tell something about yourself. |

Great shot , great colours, great emotion. I would have had part of her face visible though as the image of nothing but hair is the only distracting part of this photo. |

Wait a minute - this is the other side!!! I still like the flowers, and I like the closed eyes. I love seeing real people in pictures! |

Oh, okay.... Nice paired-submission idea. Great context, and it's always good to be hugged. You look so peaceful and happy. |

Expression of bliss in expression captured better than in matching portrait but think composition is better in other. |

Gee, looks like... Northern Utah from the angle of the sun, the type of flowers, the blissed-out expression on the face of the photograper... ;) |

The emotion in this portrait really adds a lot! It tells a story like many of the other photos do not, with the flowers and the embrace. It doesn't look all "studio" or anything, but it's a very evocative photo. I like how the two heads and the flowers all tilt at the same angle. This is very nice! |

How could I rate one different from the other? They both got the same from me. These two are both beautifully done, loving portraits of each of you! I loved the execution ... both pictures have excellent detail, focus, and DOF. (Yep, it's even the same comment!) |

Oh Hey there,
Ahhh! I see. Now it makes more sense. I saw the "Holding Him" photo quite a while ago. (I'm slow) Too bad your two photos can't be linked during Voting. I wonder if both photos will recieve the same score. Don't take this personally, but I think the "Holding Him" photo will score higher, because I find her more attractive than you. =o)
That aside. I guess this comment is more of an add on to the other comment. Well if I was picky, I'd say that there aren't as many flowers pointed toward the Camera in this shot. The extra green camouflages them against the background. A shorter DoF might have helped with that a bit, or a different background. Althought I see that you want to keep the flowers in the frame and still have the same aspect ratio, I would have tried to center the two of you more, with your face off center. |

I think a portrait should reveal some character, or emotion of the model, by showing expression in eyes or other facial features. Did your picture accomplish that? Definetly!
Lighting:good
Exposure:good
Focus:good
Creativity:good
Composition:good
Background:good
I like the emotive qualtiy of this. |
