| Excellent shot! Especially for being taken with a PowerShot at such close range. ;) The crop works perfectly. |

| Darn! Almost a winner. I love the concept and composition...really fantastic. On my monitor, it is not sharp enough. Especially with the hair being so interesting from a texture standpoint. Anyway, great idea and keep shooting. 8 |

| Very cool composition and tones. I would have liked to seen this image a littler sharper in the face though. |

| Could be improved by reducing the hot spots on the face |

| Excellent concept. I really like the glowing gold of your hair, though the skin tones are a little too yellow for my taste. The focus on the hair is good too. Your eye looks like it is a tiny bit out of focus. I would prefer the eye be in sharp focus and the hair in softer focus. |

| To orange and focus should be on your eye where it looks like it is on your hair. |

| little bit soft focuswise but the lighting is greay and your wavy hair is very interesting. I like the crop, but don't care for the double catchlights in your eye. little hot on the forehead and nose tip too. |

| Pretty, and the title makes it intriguing. However, if your eye had been sharp as well as your hair, it would have been better. |

First of all, your composition is a 10. I love how you framed yourself. Some detractors are:
-The hotspots on your forehead and nose. It is an easy fix. (use your clone stamp tool at 50% opacity. Use the DARKEN blend mode. Alt-click on an area that is not 'hot' and then go over the hot spot with a large, soft brush.)
-The white balance seems off. The golden color works well for your hair, but is distracting for the whites of your eyes and your skin tone. (Try going into CURVES. Click the white eye-dropper. Now click the eye dropper in the whitest part of your eye and see if that takes the yellow out. OR, you can try using a cooling filter.
-Also, try a little selective unsharp mask on your eye.
-Kill or simplify your frame :)
Of course, this is all just a matter of my opinion! I really do like the potential of this image. 7 |

| This is a great shot but it lacks sharpness, If this was more in focus it would've definitely ribboned .. 7 |

| Like the framing/crop, but the frame around the photo is... well kinda tacky. The focus seems to be on your hair, think you rather should have gone for the eye. Like the style though |

| I really liked the composition in this shot. However the overall shot is out of focus. It appears that your camera locked in focus on your hair and not your face. |

| Shame the sharpness isn´t as good on your face as on your hair, other than that this is simply georgeos but the lack of focus on the face is hurting it a bit in my opinion. |

| The golden light is great! I like the way you've included just a part of your face; it lends an air of mystery. How did you get your hair blowing out that way? |
