Hi, Greetings from the Critique Club:

Composition: This is great. It is well balanced and yet shows great detail work. The different women and hair really adds more interest to the image instead of a simple mirror style format. I like the idea of different shoes and am pleased you stayed with the same colour range.

Technical: Lighting, focus and settings spot on. No improvement there. I would've, however, cloned out that hideous wall plate. It is very distracting and drops the cleanliness of your image.

Overall: I think you were so close to being up there on the first page...just a tough challenge and only very minor details in your image held you down.

Great shot Dexter and congrats on your score:)

i am not sure but i think if you over saturated the red (of the bench)
this shot would have scored higher.

Hey that's cheating! They do dress up that drab bench quite nicely, though :)

Very clever. This is a fun shot as well as being clean and well lit.

NIce shot. Very sharp and well composed. I like the processing. Reminds me of "Soylent Green." Nice furniture.

Good, well captured, maybe a little over whitened on the eye on the left?

kind of cool - good composition and wonderful models - it seems to lack a bit of emotion.

Hot. I'd sit there anyday.

I have nothing else significant to contribute to this comment.

Nice light - My distractions are...The girls... Only joking.
1. the switch on the wall - Very distracting.
2. the girls shoes on the left - may have been better just black like the rest of the image.

Fun photo, but seems more about the ladies than the furniture....kind of like a precurser to the Friendship episode of I Love Lucy. 7

Nice photo, but I feel the focus is more on the girls then the bench.
