Strong entry lifving from its strong contrast and the great white of the wall. The pose of the two is interesting while alos a bit disturbing: I would like to know to what they are looking and she is laughing. Maybe a different title would have solved this. Good luck.

I think you brightened this too much, I would have liked to see the texture of the background in more than just the girls' shadows

I really like the moment of capture - you've definitely got an image packed with emotional content. I also really like the composition of the two figures against the background, their feet placed almost at the bottom of the image. I'm not sure I like the high contrast or extreme color saturation. I'll have to come back and look at it a few more times and see if it grows on me. On one hand, it makes the subjects have an almost charicature-like feeling to them, which enhances the emotion of the shot. On the other hand, I'd love to see more texture in those blacks and especially in the girl's skin. A 7 for now...

Appears to me to be oversaturated. Very interesting composition though.

I'd like the blow-outs of the white a lot more if the shadows didn't look noisy, actual wall texture or not. :)

Great capture. The symettry of the poses and the expressions on their faces make this a 10. The clothes make it black, yet the mood is so light and pleasant. I like the levels adjustments you made too. Very effective piece. Good luck in the challenge.
