Thanks a lot everyone. I owe it all to Krystal and to Dominique, the participating photographer in my one-on-one workshop.:)

I like the composition. I also like the fact that the only 'real' color, is of the girl, Krystal. The shot is easy on my eyes while compeling(sp) at the same time. I just like it.

I like the gradual shift of focus from Krsytal to the leaves to the stairs, and how she stood out. Beautiful shot!

Congratulations on your ribbon, Manny!

You know, when I saw this in the challenge, it somehow reminded me of your style. I think you threw me off because your models are usually dressed much more conservatively. Love the contrast between the harsh stone and the soft and colorful beauty.

I am not happy that somebody got disqualified but I am happy that you got bumped up! Congratulations! Proud to be a Filipino. :D

Manny! Congratulations on fourth, I am so pleased to for once have beat you :)))))) I guess I'm going by stereotypes, because I've never been outside of the Americas, but this looks so unlike Thailand. All those leaves and the puddles, and the dark, old stone steps, make it look "northern" somehow, to my eyes. There's such a contrast between cold/warm here, the backdrop is all cold, the person has Summer clothing on and looks so warm. Beautiful.

Yeah, very good entry for "diagonal". Manny? If not, consider it a compliment :)

Great model and colors, not liking the clutter of leaves though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Even though the camera is "tilted" or at least the background, the placement of the model helps anchor the picture. Wonderful scene, nicely lit and one of my favorites for this challenge. Highly rated.

great lighting, pose, and model!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good use of color and greys contrast. May just be because it's on the net, but the hair has no detail. Still a very catchy composition.

Excellent shot. Great composition, lighting. Good use of just a splash of color. Pretty girl. What's not to like!?

Dang, that beautiful model snuck in and ruined your beautiful photograph. I hate when that happens. I'll give you a 6.

This doesn't grab me, but it may well someone else. I'm indifferent to her, and the big clump of leaves top left.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/29/2006 08:41:12 PM
I love it. Great choice. Worthy of a 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/29/2006 07:04:53 PM
Beautiful composition (& model).
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/29/2006 05:44:36 PM
The left leg is a bit distracting because it looks overexposed. Beautiful model and interesting pose, plus the locations is pretty cool.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/29/2006 05:39:22 PM
Nice composition. well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/29/2006 12:58:16 PM
Plus: composition, colors, tones
Minus: overexposed legs (arms & back look better)
Score: 8

One of the better entries in my opinion. Great perspective and colors. A touch hot on the light on her shoulder.
