There is a wonderful sense of tranquility in this shot. I liked the centred but at a slight angle composition

Very nice portrait for which I think the high key black and white works well

Not bad! I'm glad it did not finish low. She looks pretty peaceful to me :)

The only thing I would change is to add one color, just one, a warm one.

I like the composition, just looks a little too much contrast and sharpening.

I don't think the high-key/high-contrast effect works that well with your subject and the topic. I wonder if the same photo pushed towards the middle tones, and maybe in a sepia-tone or something similar, might feel more "peaceful" to me.

if you could have had a darker foreground rather than a lighter one it would have been better.

Nice job. A simple take on this challenge, but fits very well. It could be a bit sharper I think, but it really is nice.

try not to wash out the candles and add contrast to her face

I was going to do this shot, but it didn't come out so good. This is really nice. Face looks a wee bit out of focus, but overall nice shot. 7

It's a very nice scene, but the exposure makes it harsh looking for a peace shot.

A bit overexposed. It seems to put the emphasis on her clothing more than her expression.

Tis is a really nice photo but i dont like the black and white, with the shadows of the candles.
