Managed to twist my mate's girlfriend's arm into posing. I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out.

Dreamy but slightly out of focus. My guess is because you were shooting in low light. Otherwise not bad

I like your idea. I find the candle flame distracting and the focus just a little too soft for my taste, though.

Nice lighting, although the background is very washed out. If it were black behind her this would be a much nicer photo.

Sharper focus on the eyes would be better. I wonder if underexposing a little bit more would help, I'm finding myself drawn too much to the candle at the moment. Beautiful image though, and wonderful emotion.

if this pic was in better focus, i would give it a 10.or maybe you wanted the focus to be a little soft?
anyway, great photo

nice expression. seems a bit soft and muted. most likely an extremely difficult shot with the long shutter. perhaps even a bit too long as the candle is a bit over exposed

The background doesn't match with the light you apparently wanted to display.
The out of focus doesn't seem to be controlled there..
It's too bad as the expression was really interesting

Lovely model, pose, expression, and composition with candle light. Better focus on model's eyes and exposure for model's face would really help a lot.

i would have liked more focus on her face...

Where is the focal point? I can find it. Needs some sharpening, too soft.
