An excellent self portrayal with beautiful colors and a dynamic range. Very well done.

Gives plenty for the viewer to think about. Why this place? Why this angle for your pose? What are you thinking? Great facial lighting and every detail in your hair is perfectly illuminated. A slower shutter speed to capture some motion in the stream is a very nice addition to the composition.

Great. I'd like the face a bit darker, but this is really a good capture.

Very nice, excellent colors

Good light and detail. I think I would have cropped out the part of your arm that shows through your blouse and some off the right. Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/22/2006 09:59:01 PM
I like this composition and the lighting isn't too harsh. I wish that the DOF were much more shallow so the field wasn't so sharp in focus.

A wonderful shot. Serious eyes concentrating on something with a hint of a smile. Background looks a bit desolate. Interesting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful portrait. Love the background and the facial expression. Great skin tones. Good luck!

Unneva! flott mynd. Eina sem ég hefði gert öðruvísi væri að taka myndina á aðeins lengri tíma til að fá vatnið "smooth". Flott engu síður. (if this makes no sense to you then this comment is not meant for you :)

This is such a beautiful image. What a great self portrait.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/20/2006 11:09:39 AM
Nicely done an image with character and brave enough not to be over processed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/20/2006 09:24:23 AM
Beautiful image. I know post processing was limited but if you rework this photo, clone out that red roof in the upper left hand corner. Nothing should draw the viewer away from that expression. Great job.

I like the rough around the edges Daisy Duke sort of look here! It looks like a movie still :-)

Good to see you posting here again, a nice shot of you. Would have preferred the backround to be slightly out of focus though, it´s just a tad too busy for this shot but you look lovely as ever ofcourse.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/19/2006 10:14:11 AM
wow, stunning eyes...there's something about the shot that bothers me, and I can't quite work it out...I think it's the composition...either go higher or lower with the shot...higher to get you and the river or lower to get a little less of the sky...not sure if I am explaining myself, but I think it's where the top of your head sits with the horizon...not being critical, just trying to be helpful

On the good side, love the face, river, especially that splash look just in front of you

You have a very intriguing face but I can't help but think you could've done so much better here. A prettier scene may have helped or maybe a more apt title but it's a shame because I would've loved to have given you top marks.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/19/2006 05:28:35 AM
Natural expression, impressive. Also very Icelandy :)

Beutiful shot. I love the environment and its impact on the shot. My only gripe is the slightly tilted horizon line, I probably would have rotated that to the right a bit.

Beautiful! I love the colors, the sharpness and of course... you are beautiful also!
