Hey there from the Critique Club
Camera Work/Technical: Nice focus on the most important areas of the subject, but a deeper depth of field would have helped.
Lighting: You did a pretty good job with a harshly backlit situation. You did lose some detail in the bright sky, and that spot really pulls the viewer's eye down toward it.
Composition/Content: I think that you didn't score well because the composition feels very tense. It's almost like I am holding the model up in my mind, and, oddly enough, that makes me want to pass by the photo quickly. I'd also like to see more of the face, especially that eye that is covered by your nose.
My Opinion: I do not believe that this is a sub-5 photograph. If I were scoring this, I would give it a 5 and expect it to finish in the low 5 range. You have a very interesting idea, but the execution could use some improvement. Softer backlight and a bit less shadow would have improved this one a good deal. |

| This is grossly under-rated picture. Though my eyes had hard time trying to see the person by rotating the picture (in mind) but this still deserved better. Technically it is well executed and I congratulate you from trying something different. Goodluck for the future submissions. |

| It's just not a flattering angle as I'm sure you know (and you probably don't care). Shadows are overpowering at top, and overall a bit soft. |

| I would say this is a little dark, but then if it were lighter, I might be seeing more than i would want at this angle! LOL Good idea. |

| Neat idea, but too much backlighting. |

| You should have rotated this 90 degrees CCW |
