I would love to see this made into a black and white with the flowers painted back in as a light yellow? and maybe her eyes barely painted back as a light blue? might turn out cool... :)

The model is more strikingly beautiful than the flowers I think. I would like to see a shot without the flower in the mouth. I think that may have had more appeal and aided the composition. The catch light in those radiant blues eyes is great.

She is a pretty girl and this picture has alot of potential. I would have preferred that the daisy was not on her face.

I like the concept, but the model looks terribly bored and that really detracts from it for me. I'm also not in love with the way the light falls off on the top. You've used nice colors though.

The lighting is out of this world, the hair is excellent as well as the skin. The complementary colors are great ... Not seeing the mouth due to a flower being stuffed there just kills this for me ... I get it, I think ... but visually it just doesn't help it. I want to like it more than I do ... technically perfect, but doesn't have great appeal to me overall ... I'm sure if the flower wern't there you'd have people saying that the focus wasn't on the flowers.

Nicely done.. FLowers and a flower girl, like the fact that you make the flowers more interesting by adding the girl... good luck

The idea's a copycat of something familiar but still delightful. Perhaps it was intended but I find the exposure a bit over. Nice match of the blue background and eyes tho'.

I like the picture but not the vignetting, it would be much better without it. Also, I would get rid of the shadows under her shoulders. She has beautiful eyes!!!

This is cute, it looks like a combination of Wonderbread's photo where she has flowers in here hair and karmabreeze's & Biteme's photos where they have a flower in their mouths. I like the lighting, I think the flower in her mouth might be a bit too big. I immediately focus on the models' eyes and to me they look tired, and that doesn't fit the rest of the photo.

Overall, I like the idea ... except for the flower in her mouth, that one just disturbs me. (who knows, maybe a flower tried to suffocate me as a child and I still haven't gotten over it)

good concept. nice eyes on your model.

I think I'd like this better if the flower weren't in her mouth. That vibrant aqua is almost too severe and detracts from her eyes and hair.

I would love to see the out-takes. The flower over her mouth is distracting.

I saw an image with lemon slices similar to this.
