Greetings from the Critique Club!
Met the challenge? I'll say both yes and some may not have though so. Clearly it's meant to be gold eyeshadow on the model, but on both my monitors, it appears to be more of a yellow/green gold than a "gold" gold.
Composition While I think the long narrow crop suits this image and what I perceive you wanted it to be, it may not do well on DPC as it does limit the total size the picture can be. Also, the slight angle, with the eye on the right of the frame higher and the eyebrow cut off, somewhat detracts from this composition, and makes it feel a bit cramped/too tightly cropped.
Lighting You mentioned in your comments you weren't happy with the lighting. The effect I do like here is the one eye more fully lit while the other recedes into the shadows. It does appear a bit harsh across the brow - was the light source diffused at all? That can help reduce the glare and provide more even lighting.
Overall I can definitely see what you were going for here. I think the only way to fully achieve it is with a studio-type light setup - soft, diffuse light to ensure even coverage and accurate exposure.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions! |
