Well done. You suggest so much about the room with a minimum number of background details in just the right amount of focus. I'm not sure how I feel about her looking above me. 7

I love that you photographed her in her own environment. I might have liked a bit more of a fill flash on her face, but that's about it. ;o) 10

Well above average in this group. If it's a self-portrait, you're probably beating photographers with WAY more experience. Nice lighting and color, but I'd crop off the right side- a face positioned dead center like this usually creates a very static composition. Good job!

I like the contrasting angles (length of bed vs. width of arms) of this photo and how they compliment each other to create depth.

The mood of the photo is great and totally meets the challenge. I love the lighting and the focus. I think it will finish in the top 10.

I really like this one. Very nice lighting and nice composition. Captures the situation very well, looks like a really comfy cozy place to be.

excellent shot. I love this

Perhaps a little too dead center, and she's not looking directly into the lens. Nice colors and tonality overall.

Nice lighting in the eyes. Good use of landscape orientation.

8: love this one. The colours work so well, the set up is typical and honest without being boring. Not sure if everyone else will enjoy this as much as I do...just so girly.

The pose is just perfect, and I really like that the little girl is gazing out of the scene to the left of the photographer. L:ighting is effective, and there is a good exposure throughout. Good one!

Need a little different placement of either the lighting or maybe just turn her head to (her left) just a bit so the hair isn't causing the shadow over her left eye and the nose doesn't make such a shadow on her face.
