Greetings from the Critique Club prentice.
Good colors and a beautiful subject. Centered nicely which is exactly what is called for here. I like her look and the emotion she is emitting. Only a few things that I feel would've helped your score.
First off, because of the exposure and shadowing in her eyes you'll need some dodging to bring them out - or at least some fill flash on shoot. Voters at DPC really like the eyes to pop. Because of the title I feel that I need the headdress to come at me more. It seems a bit soft and could use a stronger unsharp mask. Also, the open space in the top left is somewhat distracting and keeps pulling my eye towards it. The way you cropped the hands doesn't really bother me but I do see that as something that people might not like.
Overall a good shot that might've got you a higher score in a different challenge as it seems that some didn't think it fell into Photojournalism. Personally, I think that is in the eye of the beholder and what one might consider Photojournalism others may not. I think it fits nicely.
Thank you for the opportunity to critique your image prentice.
Cheers -Phil

Nice portrait and I gave it a good score, but has little to do with Photo Journalism IMO. |

What's the significance of the photo? This type of portrait shot, I need a bit more info in the title to help me know what I'm looking at. |
